@killthahippie I didn't remove it- it was on another youtube user site called contragear. he has reposted it! i put it on my favorites to help those like you find it :)

Awesome! it's like a D harmonic-minor scale but built on the 5th! Keeps you guessing where tonic is. Cool feel....

[TheHotViolinist]

@Nightowl4272 Exactly! It's like- if modes could have modes..... I think that's a good way to think of it.

@orochimarui2 It is an original tune, written by me and Mark Varelas, in a Gypsy style. We used an exotic scale that was introduced to me as the Greek Hitzaz scale. Here are the notes of the scale in A:

A, Bb, C#, D, E, F, G, A

You have no good education.

Stop writing such a crap.

This is disgusting.

@TheHotViolinist I love Joshua's drums on this tune. I've heard many times the E Muzeki version of this song and although I love Mark's guitar(bouzouki?) in the first half, the drums are not quite as good as in this video. Joshua adds a new life to this song. He's awesome! You, Jenny, sound as lovely as always.

@TheHotViolinist .There's a scale called the"Hungarian Minor"..i play it on guitar, an also build chords from it..so weird....Sometimes i transpose some Irish piece notes into a tune using that scale, for fun..Wow, new music..But love to watch you play, you're so incredible
