@stringy Great playing! Really like this one—
Thanks for including the tune’s history. How amazing it is to play a tune that others played/listened to over 400 years ago

@ABitRusty Wonderful playing & neat tune! Liked the visual perspective—and the black & white works well with it

Here’s the link to my Halloween Party Tune:
I got this tune from Emily’s post in the thread posted here (thanks Emily! ):
https://fiddlerman.com/forum/p.....4/#p141322
As I indicated in that thread, I liked the original tune on violin in Gm, but liked it more when I transposed it down to Cm on the viola, and that’s how I’ve played it here, adding a 2nd viola part (used my little 14" viola) and a 3rd "guest" instrument part

@Mouse @ABitRusty @ELCBKK @Mark Thanks all!
I'm uploading a corrected video file now--uploaded the wrong draft--audio mix was a little off from what I wanted it.
A recorder player I am not! Did myself no favors by making the tune in Cm—and that whole breathing/blowing thing (much respect to you woodwind players out there). Yeah, didn’t seem that hard when I was like 7 or 8 in school playing “Hot Cross Buns”
Hope more folks are going to join the party!
@ELCBKK I like candy corn! Not sure about your angry corn fellow there, though. Wonder what he is saying carrying that ax

Sorry, couldn't resist a gif showing some possessed candy - the Dr.Jekll/Mr.Hyde of Candy Corn?
The recorder is really cool - adds 'old world', medieval charm (much nicer to hear than a tin whistle)!
Yeah, Cm... a bit devilish.

I know you’ve played this tune before, it has a dark name and in this key, also sounds dark to me.

Sharon excellent playing and vid as always, must have taken a lot of putting together, I like the woodwind as well, certainly different and adds to it really good.
Ford glass great playing glad you joined in and shared your tune, it was actually abitrusty who put me onto the tune a year or so ago, to be honest I had forgotten this one, but I like your version.

@Ford Glass -
LOVED IT!
Think you are playing in 'A' dorian - plenty dark for HALLOWEEN!
I enjoyed listening - GREAT feel to your playing!
