Washington's March

"Washington's March" is a tune recorded by West Virginia, East Kentucky fiddler Edden Hammons on the Smithsonian recording Edden Hammons Vol. 1. The Hammons family were all musical but Edden was the prodigy. Gordon Scott became fascinated with the tune, learned it, and taught it to me. A friend recently asked if I knew the tune. He'd heard a recording of an Irish band called The Immigrants. It's available on thesession.org but this version is more like how Edden Hammons played it. I've included two settings and Edden played it differently every time through on his recording. In the second setting I included the c#'s in the A Part rather than the c naturals as in the first setting.
