Think you should upper the tempo to the normal speed but I REALLY like your tuorlauths.

I notice the lower pitch of the chanter.... not a bad sound !!! *****

Thanks. I don't really like the new trend of making everything so sharp.  I like to play at around 478.

I liked the tune so much I found it, and am using your post to help learn it. Thanks for posting !!!

Your welcome. If you have any questions about it, feel free to get in touch with me. I have competed with this tune again recently and I have improved on it. The judges keep saying that I need to play it slightly faster, so I am trying to keep this in mind.
