From the music of Emelie Waldken, whom you should listen to if you want to know how this is supposed to sound!
Needs to be played a bit more lightly, but this is a first attempt. Glad to share tab if anybody is interested.
Played on a Ron Ewing semichromatic 4-string tuned CGCG
So interesting.Schottisches from the Canadian prairies are quite different and the dance involves partners doing a few step/hops at the end of each measure.Enjoyed listening to this.Thanks.
It's even more geographically convoluted than that: "Schottis" apparently (according to Wikipedia) is German for Scottish and was a form of dance pioneered in Bohemia...

A well-traveled tune, perhaps.
Hi Robin,

It's neat to hear a Swedish regional tune played in NY State on an Ohio-built mountain dulcimer! Thanks for the posting!
