Re: [Callers] tune structure as second nature

--- Chrissy wrote: But once in a great while there is a tune that just 'sounds backward.' --- end of quote --- Keep in mind that there are some tunes where different musicians know the two parts in different order. I've run across bands who play the Growling Old Man and the Cackling Old Woman in what sounds to me like the wrong order and yes, that throws me off, too. And then there are tunes such as Mackimoyle, where some musicians put the first beat at the start of opening four eight notes, while others treat those as pickup notes. I know the tune best this second way-- that's the way I learned it-- so when I encounter it the other way, it takes me a moment to adjust. David Millstone Lebanon, NH
