Another Sunday and two more tunes

We got together this afternoon to practice a little, and we recorded two more tunes.

The first is a Scandinavian waltz in a minor key. The title means "last waltz."

Sidste Vals


The next is a Scottish and Irish traditional song, which, according to Wikipedia, was "often sung at the end of a gathering of friends." The first verse:

Of all the money e'er I had,
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm e'er I've done,
Alas! it was to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all.



The Parting Glass
