Chumas an válsa seo i rith an chéad ‘dhianghlasáil’ mar bhraitheas uaim mo mhuintir go mór. “Déanfaimid Waltz” adeirim féin agus Mam lena chéile nuair a bhíonn fonn orainn rince a dhéanamh go háirithe nuair a bhíonn Daid ag seimint.
I wrote this waltz during the (first) lockdown for my family as I missed them. “Déanfaimid Waltz” (Let’s Waltz) is what my Mam and I say to each other whenever a waltzing opportunity arises, especially when my Dad is playing.
