from Compositions by Elaine Hogan
This tune was written for Nancy Molloy, the eldest daughter of very good friends of mine. She is a natural on the egg shaker from a very young age! I played around with the timing on the second part of this tune. I also perform it up a semitone, it means that almost all of the blades on my harp are down, which gives it a much clearer and more ethereal sound in my opinion.
