Shimmers

Finally back to composing a few new tunes.  Here is one from my noodling around tonight. Hope you enjoy it.  Not really sure what level it would suit... perhaps a grade 3 or 4 could handle it.  It should be played quite expressively.

Kermit's Waltz

Here is a little waltz suitable for later beginners...  Kermit is one of our best cows

on our dairy farm here in Ontario.  She is an Ayrshire and a bit of a bossy one at that.

She just went out on pasture for the summer - and she rules the pasture.

Hope you enjoy this little waltz.

Scootle-de-doot

Sorry I have not posted very much lately. I am currently working on the Celtic Beginner Project, trying to make something of a book of pieces and it is taking much longer than anticipated - simply because of a few family issues that are taking precedent.  However, I hope you will enjoy this little piece - usually when my daughter is delaying bedtime, I try to hurry her along and "scootle-de-doot" is usually my final word to make her move faster!
