Description:

In my youth I had a Scottish school friend whose parents celebrated Hogmanay[Scots New Year's]..this Cape Breton medley's as close as I can come to that spirit and after many attempts to play a strathspey on the dulcimer this as close as I've got-with a noter!Dulcimer tuned Ddd.Happy new year to all.

Still working on a few more strathspeys a year later.It's interesting,you've got to create a special technique for it.Some of them work,most of them don't.If you are stubborn enough you may do it.I hope I do.I like the sound of the dulcimer and the Cape Breton/Scots music together.

These are great tunes, Jamie, and fit so well with dulcimer in noter/drone style!  Nice fiddling, too!  Happy new year & happy music making!
