Month: October 2010

Silta (Bridge)

Silta (‘Bridge’ in English) was written by Markku Lepisto, a fine melodeon player from Finland. It’s a remarkable tune, in 3 parts and a rather irregular structure.

Markku normally plays it on a G/C; here I’m playing it on a D/G Castagnari Mory. Haven’t got quite all the fancy bass runs that Markku does, but hey, that’s why he’s a professional musician, and I’m not!

Played as part of Melodeon.net’s Theme of the Month for October 2010, ‘Tunes from Scandinavia.’.

Une Autre Fois / Le Canal en Octobre

Here we have 2 french schottisches written by Frederic Paris, Une Autre Fois and Le Canal en Octobre, part of melodeon.net’s Tune of the Month for October 2010. Visit www.melodeon.net for lots more alternative versions!

Played by Clive Williams on a Castagnari Mory in D/G (with unisonoric basses, not that that really matters for these tunes).
