Performance tips: this is beginner / intermediate level piece and played at a medium fast or allegro speed. The guitar accompaniment can be played with broken chords, or arpeggio style. When we play this live, we make a two-part set by starting with our self-penned tune Schottische de Dimanche and finishing with the Muiñeira del Año Nuevo.Na-Mara (Rob Garcia and Paul McNamara) perform this instrumental piece on mandolin or octave mandola, with guitar accompaniment. They have also used it alongside other tunes in workshops as a teaching and learning resource, introducing players to tunes from different parts of the Celtic world.Recordings of this and other tunes on SMP can be found on Na-Mara’s albums ‘Sisters & Brothers’, ‘Navajos & Pirates’ and ‘The Bite’Na-Mara have built an enviable reputation for fine story-telling and musicianship.
