Abbots Bromley Horn Dance (English trad) | DG Melodeon/Diatonic Button Accordion Mel Biggs

I hope you enjoy my take on an old English tune - The Abbots Bromley Horn dance! I live not far from where this long-standing medieval traditional dance is performed, which happens annually on Wakes Monday; the Monday that follows the first Sunday subsequent to 4 September. But from what I have seen, the dances are done to more common English session or Morris tunes (things the musicians are familiar with) rather than this haunting tune.
You'll more than likely detect a little 'Rhythmical Rubbish' in the final round of the melody - I left it in to show I am only human, and I make mistakes! Plus, this was the best of 7 takes, and I have other tunes to record this afternoon!
