As far as Ross’ Reel #4 goes, that’s not one that I’ve heard has a signature dance. On New England Chestnuts it opens for one of the Lady of the Lakes. So I’d say, go for it! My only thought is an F tune to an F tune might not be that dramatic of a change…

Subject: [Musicians] Another Chestnut tune question

 

Hi All,

 

One more question from me!  This one about another Chestnut Dance... Hull's Victory.

 

The first tune we plan to do is Hull's Victory which makes sense. :) :) 

 

However I'd like to do another tune after and Ross's Reel #4 sounds really good.  ... ... my concern is I think this has been associated with another chestnut dance??? ??? 

Thoughts?

 

And any tunes you traditionally associate with Hull's Victory (the dance)?

 

Thanks!

Emily
