Captain Byng

Written by Paul Conlon. Posted in Belfast Trad Lower Intermediate Level, Newly added tunes

A great wee polka in the key of G major, the notes below are grouped in short phases.

In the first part I have highlighted the ending in red as a variation run-in to repeating the first part. Second time around you would play the notes highlighted in green.
