Delting Wedding March/Calum's Road/Ornette's Trip to Belfast

I put these three tunes up in response to a request by my dad (hi Dad!). All three of them were taught to me ages ago by Pete Cooper.

The Delting Wedding March pretty much is exactly what it says. A traditional wedding march from Delting in the Shetland islands.

Calum's Road is a tune by Donald Shaw, written as a tribute to the incredible Calum MacLeod of Raasay, who built a road single-handedly over a period of ten years.

Ornette's Trip to Belfast is a reel also by Donald Shaw, commemorating a night when both his band and Ornette Coleman's band had gigs in the same part of Belfast, and a legendary clash of the musical titans ensued. :-D
