Back to Norwegian Waltz (2) (The)

NORWEGIAN WALTZ [2], THE.' Irish, Waltz. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The tune is a reworking of a waltz recorded by Canadian fiddlers Don Messer and (later) Graham Townsend. It retains the flavor and phrasing of "Norwegian Waltz (1) (The)," but is melodically different enough to be considered a variant.

Printed sources: Matthiesen (Waltz Book II), 1995; p. 41.

Recorded sources: Green Linnet SIF-1051, Jackie Daley, Seamus & Manus McGuire - "Buttons and Bows" (1984).
