So Fröhlich

Pascale Ruben’s gorgeous mazurka, So Fröhlich. Quite challenging to figure out to play, as a hint for myself in the future when I’ve forgotten, the frst few chords are largely (in D/G terms) Bm to Em to Am, and most of the action happens in the inner row.

One of a trio of tunes I’ve put together for Melodeon.net’s theme of the month for February 2023.

Played on a Hohner Preciosa in Bb/Eb, which puts it a semitone above the Naragonia version. To use the same fingering I used, you’d need an A/D to play it in the same key as on the record.
