Another French tune... -a pommier is an apple tree. Cider, right? https://youtu.be/q-Np7zzNUMQ
I like your French dance tunes, Simon. Keep them coming!
That's a catchy wee tune, Simon.
Nice tune Simon, and nicely played.Cider makes sense to me
Thank you for these great French tunes, Simon! They're such a welcome addition to the musical vocabulary of this group, and I look forward to every new recording. Those great-sounding church bells are back again as well. I really do love that sound. Our church bells don't sound as nice as that.
Thanks Gentlemen. The bells have always there Dennis. The difference is that in a lot of the previous recordings I would delete the clip every time the bells intruded, now I just carry on playing all the way through. I like the tone of them at the moment -the tone does actually vary a lot over the year. I like the French tunes for their melodic simplicity. I play a lot of them with swing which I guess I shouldn’t -the Oom, pah, pah rhythm is more prevalent and I think they sound better when played by a diverse gaggle of acoustic instruments.
