TWA FIDDLES AT DA FIRESIDE. Shetland, Air (4/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "Composed on a stormy night in December, 1978, while sitting at the fireside with Linda Keen, a pupil form the USA, who immediately started harmonizing on her fiddle. When Tom was young, fiddle music was transmitted orally sitting at the fireside and watching the fingering and bowings of the older player" (Anderson).
