Here is another Scottish tune that most everyone will be familiar with but perhaps not sad lyrics.
Lyrics to "Loch Lomond"
By yon bonnie banks, and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
There me and my true love spent mony happy days
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.
Chorus
Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
But trouble it is there, and mony hearts are sair
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.
Verse Two
'Twas there that we parted in yon bonnie glen
On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomond
Where in purple hue the Highland hills we view
And the moon glints out in the gloamin'.
Verse Three
There the wild flowers spring and the wee birdies sing
And in sunshine the waters are sleepin'
But the broken heart it kens nae second spring again
Though resigned we may be while we're greetin'.

I am using a Charles J, Horner violin I call the RedHorse due to the red stain on the spruce. The reverb effect is called Live Performance and is a Garageband product. The mic is an Audio-Technica AT2020

Lovely, haunting tune, nice performance. I always remember this tune as played by the Benny Goodman band. Goodman swung it, of course, and left out the sad lyrics, but either way it's a fine piece. Love the reverb effect here.
