Polska efter Oppigårds Lars

Hello!
This tune is a really great tune from a Swedish piper. The trick with this tune is the staccato, short sharp notes at the beginning, trying to make them sound snappy like they do on the säckpipa.
Enjoy!

Polska efter Lennart Skoglund

Hello!

A polska today on the Scottish smallpipes. It's an eight note polska, so that means make sure you swing the dotted quaver/semi quaver figures. Watch out for the sei-quavers in the B part. It also needs a C natural thumb hole for the right hand. It's a great polska though - I love it!
Enjoy!
