Morfa Rhuddlan

Welsh Lament. I had to stop everything else I was doing (and trying to learn) to get this one recorded. From finding the melody to video in three days is a new record for me! (proudly pat my own shoulder and grin dirtily) You can find a very nice version by Barry Taylor (MIDI) here:

Somehow I seem not to be able to play this slowly as it should be. Maybe that accounts for all the buzzing, I can't seem to get rid of.
BTW I finally got video evidence, that the notorious buzz monster is living right outside my livingroom in a tree (note the glowing eyes!).
Have fun,
Mary

@Pylotsyf Thanks a lot! What a nice compliment!

Beautiful melody!

@soaz82 Thank you!

Mary- beautifully played, as are all of your arrangements. It would take me 3 months, not three days to be able to play that piece. It is fine.

As for that buzz monster- I see it too! I have one around my house too and I will look out at night to see if I can see those evil eyes looking in at me.

@DonnaMenke Hi Donna, I do not know about three months. This tune plays itself really. Sort of like I imagined when I got started making music (and dreamed of ever since, sigh) Anyway, Thanks for the nice comment and happy harping to you! It is good, that you got home safely. I have been missing your voice on vhc!

[MegMerrilies]

Very nice, well done!

I know the feeling.....I have a tune going round and round in my head I must learn on the harp.

Annoying because there are others I should play before I try and unravel this one!

@SDG1750 Ooops!!! You are right! Isn't Morfa the Welsh word for salt marsh? Thanks for telling me.

Happy harping,

Mary
