Sailor's Hornpipe (for the Star of India)

Liner Notes
#piccolo #flute #glockenspiel #hornpipe #traditional
Made a video of photos from one of the many times I was on the Star of India in San Diego harbor. My dad loved sailing, and we lived in San Diego from 69 to 83, so I spent many days, hours and hours, aboard the oldest merchant mariner still afloat.
This is a traditional fiddle tune, The Sailor's Hornpipe; I just arranged it. I don't care about this being song 14 because over the next 10 days I'm pretty sure I'll be post another handful of originals.

Well, this may be “just an arrangement” but, a) you’ve arranged it beautifully, it’s a lovely and enjoyable listen, and b) I’m really glad you posted it and I stumbled across it, because I’ve heard this song before but never knew the name, so now I do!
