Sounds tricky! Well done!

Well not to get into international hostilities......there is definitely a very well known version of this played by French musette accordion players called " Le Retour des Hirondelles" or "Return of the Swallows" . I have only ever heard it called that - Sharon plays it about 300% less cheesily than most accordion players but it is a show-stopper tune for accordionists and can be pretty impressive if played well. I say back to the Irish stuff ....

The name of the tune is 'Les Hirondelles' which is French for 'the swallows'

[hibbs3]

why doesnt she play the bass buttons?

[martinmcmutrie]

Irish trad accordion/melodeon players rarely use the basses. The English players do it more.

[hibbs3]

thats not true...almost all irish players ive seen use them...

[fcorb1]

Yeah, well she's so brill she does'nt have to! lol

[wimpers]

Sharon Shannon is such a great player!!

This song - too bad it is incomplete and not the best quality - is a wonderful tune of hers, with fascinating alternating variations on the main theme. Nice to find it here!
