2. Sir: I wrote you an e-mail with a link to version of the Sailors Hornpipe, done by a friend. Hope you enjoy it. Sadly i cannot post the link here for some reason... BTW: this version is well played. Very good technique, nicely tuned piano. Congratulations.
3. Sure it would!
4. Heheheheh.... yes, I bet you are. Would've been messy, right? lol

George Malcolm: Bach before the Mast

George Malcolm (1917-1997) was an eminent British harpsichordist and conductor. This 1954 piece (written I think for piano, as it has dynamic markings) is an arrangement of the well-known British tune 'The Sailor's Hornpipe' somewhat in the style of the first movement of the Bach 'Italian Concerto' (or so it seems to me. This is a taxing piece. like many of Bach's own up-tempo keyboard pieces, and in turning a page I missed out a turn on one note - but hope that is a minor flaw! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk
