Tunes that use the footjoint keys

[dunnp]

In response to another thread and out of interest lately what are some nice tunes using the footjoint keys:
I think this type of thread has been done but let's do it again

Here is a nice one I'm working on from this website: http://www.reavy.us/Reavycom.abc

N:Like Sarah Casey, Synge's "beauty of Ballinacree,"
N:the gypsy girl represents those strange
N:beauties of the road who have
N:such devilish wild appeal, unlike any
N:others we know. And you'll never
N:see the likes of them in any other setting
N:however far you venture.

can be played an octave up as well
I have one eight key where the keys work perfectly and seal every time the other one takes thinking about
and too much pressure so octave up

I don't play flute anymore, but when I did I liked to use the low C# key for a gracenote on bottom D on the tune Bunker Hill, on that bottom D near the beginning of the tune that fiddlers usually "scoop" up to:

cA | GE3~ (C#)D4 |

It gave a fair approximation of the effect that the fiddlers got.

It's one of the things I miss on the Low D whistle.

Another Low C# tune was that Kevin Burke jig in A Major that began

| E3~ EC#E | EF#A A...

[mkchen]

Fisherman's Island is another nice Ed Reavy tune that goes down to C#.

Music in the Glen: sometimes I play the CB in the A part up an octave, sometimes I stay low on the C and just go high on the B (all the while wishing these things had a B foot joint). But jumping an octave on just the one note is a little jarring to me, somehow.

Josephine's Waltz (Josefins dopvalz)

Does anyone know anything about the tune Chris Norman plays called "The Iron Ring"? He uses the foot joint keys in it. Anyone know where a recording is available? See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVl-0VkrbHc

Maire Breathnach's #2 (C#)
Highest Hill in Sligo (C#)
Shoemaker's Daughter (C)
Seanamhac Tube Station (C)
Music in the Glen in A (C#)

Here's a few I play and there's others that I can't currently think of.
Morgan Magan
Planxty Irwin (in D)
The Fairy Queen (in C)
The Road to Skye
Rachel Rae / Danny Meehan's
Angus Ronald's Big Tune

I also use the C# key sometimes in the 2nd octave for d-c#-d

Me too. I've been looking all over for that.

The Jug of Punch is a good one for using the foot keys and also gives a workout on the long F key.
