 Huh
Not at all happy about this month theme ... percussion only  Roll Eyes
Really not my scene, so I decided to go 'almost' all VST. The only real thing is the bodhran.

The late Derek Bell, of The Chieftains, often played a hammered dulcimer which he referred to as a tiompán.
I’ve tried to simulate the sound of this instrument by playing a tune from the 17th century harpist Turlough O'Carolan.  I have added accompaniment of Vibraphone, Xylophone, Marimba and Glockenspiel, backed up by a Bodhran.  All very traditional except that I’m afraid they are all, bar the bodhran, virtual instruments.

For what it's worth, all three of our KM residents were in my voting list, but such was the quality of the competition only James survived Undecided

If you have a poem, I have a tune, and we exchange these, we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
