A little about the piece:

This is a piece of music Eric wrote for his sister. He must have really loved her as this contains some beautifully crafted melodies - if I'm completely honest I quite often get a lump in my throat whenever I play this in concerts... (damn onions!...)

Onions aside, Eric was born in New York but grew up in the West Country of Ireland. As such, his music is highly influenced by the folk music of Ireland. He is quite well known for his innovative percussive guitar music in which the guitar is used as a percussion instrument as well as a guitar, but this is one of his lesser-known, gentler, folk-inspired pieces.

Hi declan, just checked out all the details regarding the tuning as mentioned further down the thread and also checked candy rat tabs... No joy yet :-( if you have a copy I could get hold of that would be great. I'm currently about Grade 3 but am managing to play a few grade 5 pieces, Bird flew over the spire is the current grade 5 favorite, if you can help pls get in touch on FB...cheers

Hi Declan - great sound. I have Stephen Hill's 66th guitar from many years ago when he lived here in Lewes. Out of interest do you play at weddings and events? I run www.classicalguitarist.co.uk which is an agency for guitarists.
