Subject: David Hutchison The Accordeon Strathspey King
This is a typical recording by David Hutchison and as usual he gave terrific value for money.He starts off with a song by Robert Burns and plays in strathspey time. Note here that he has transposed Burns'song from D major to the lower octave of A major. Done no doubt to enable him to move without hesitation to his second tune the pipe march Bonnie Anne, which, that too he has transposed from A major with a natural G to D major with a natural C. Remakable in itself for a man who could not read a note of music. Then he plays Maggie Cameron in the written key of A with a natural G in the style of a Scottish fiddler. Note his fiddle style chords and ornamentation. Then he finishes with Lord Macdonalds reel in great style, body and fervour. I just dont know how he did it. Sean Macutcheon
