The story of this beautiful, peppy tune written by Turlough O’Carolan is that he composed it on the spot after a friendly musical challenge from the famous Italian Baroque composer and violinist Francesco Geminiani. “Well, I can do that!” he said and he he did! The phrases are longer and plentiful than some of his other tunes but that makes for a very interesting tune to play and listen to. We will break it up and make it easier to learn. Class will be recorded.
