First try at this beautiful Scottish Lament played this time as a waltz with simple guitar and bass backup. It was composed by James Scott Skinner. I've added some ornaments and doublestops, now I need to work on the intonation in spots. Not sure my fiddle was 100% in tune - we were in a hurry that day.

Although I strictly play it as a lament, I really love the Oldtime waltz theme you have done with this. Excellent.
