Women of the Northbay Region of California gathered in Petaluma for the Gather the Women (GTW) Fall Congress in October 2008. Speakers Marilyn Nyborg, GTW president; Jean Shinoda Bolen, author and Jungian analyst; and local healers Jan Boddie and Marystella Church spoke to more than 60 women. Women participated in a labyrinth walk with Virginia Grace-Braun and a Walesongs performance with performance artist Diana Marto and cellist Suellen Primost. Local circle facilitators led break-out circles to discuss the theme Celebrating Our Connections. A potluck lunch added to the celebration.

I play this on fiddle! But my version has a less dotted rhythm, and this one doesn't have gracenotes or ornamentation.
