Phillippe Breuneau/ French waltzes

We have some evidence, however, that you may have to pay for the reeds.

Phillippe Breuneau/ French waltzes

Post by Jimbaab »

Hi,
Has anyone heard a waltz of this name and could you send the dots or an audio file of it?
Used to love playing it and had it on a midi type audio file years ago but since lost that.
Getting a few French style walzy tunes going just now and they're great.
Any suggestions??
Cheers
I'd like to help you out. Which way did you come in?

This one?

Note the spelling of the name ... M. Bruneau is apparently a Québecois accordion player.

:lol: I know you're pointing out that he's not French, but reading that is a bit like seeing "Mr. Peoples is apparently an Irish fiddle player"...

Bruneau, who is revered and feared in equal measure, has been living in France for the last few decades. He has written a good few tunes that have passed into the tradition - other well-known waltzes of his include "Hommage à Jimmy di Genova" and "Hommage à Dorothée" which I made a stab at transcribing after the lady in question passed away (http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/3603).

" revered and feared in equal measure"

Could you explain?

Thanks
