Aisling An Diabail (traditional)

This old fiddle song has many different versions and variants, and can be traced back to northern Scotland. Both its charm and challenge come from the constant string crossings in the melody.

Songy Song Song (G. Bonneau)

Yes, the title of this song is embarrassing, and shows how little imagination I have. But I am counting on you to come up with a better one.

Minuet (G.-F. Handel)

George-Frederic Handel wrote this piece for a boat party for the King of England. This is outdoor music, so make sure to play with a nice trumpet-like tone.
