For #TunebookTuesday, I have a new tunebook! It's from our friend Cano, a much-loved Galician gaita player (bagpipes). His full name is Alexandre Cadarso Suárez and my good friend Kevin Carr has brought him over to the States a number of times where we got to meet him and play with him. He even took our family's tunebook, "La Boîte à Pitons" of French-Canadian tunes back to Galicia, so maybe folks over there are playing our tunes like I'm playing their tunes!

The tunebook is called "The Essence of our Traditional Sound". I'm not sure it's available online, but I'll update this comment here and post on Patreon if I find a link to it!

The tune is a popular "Marcha", a religious processional march from Pontevedra. It's really fun to play. Maybe I'll keep doing Galician tunes if they're all this nice!


Support my 365 Tune of the Day Challenge on Patreon and you'll get background info, source recordings, full fiddle lessons, and sheet music on the tunes!
