Moneymusk Hornpipe

September 26, 2008 By 3 Comments

Moneymusk hornpipe is a fun oldtime fiddle tune. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did working it up.

I got the inspiration to record it watching Jean Carignan videos here on youtube.

I couldn’t figure out how Jean got his triplets to pop, and I learned from Donna Hebert that the French Triplet is split into 2 bows.

    Cool version. Have you heard John Hartford’s version ? Very similar. I’ll have to try your version for more variation.
