The Corsican Tune / O Cabalo Azul

 

Friends of Becki's spent some time in Corsica and came back having learnt this beautiful tune. They taught it to Becki whilst busking together in Galicia after meeting up at a festival there.
In some ways this tune is the most 'traditional' tune of the whole album because we have never seen it written down, we don't know it's name and we don't know if how we play it relates in any way to the tune first heard in Corsica.
If anyone knows any more about this tune please let us know!

As Becki learnt the first tune in Galicia, it only seemed right to team it up with a tune from that area. The next tune is O Cabalo Azul (Gallego for The Blue Horse) and we heard this on a CD by Galician piper Carlos Nunez.
