The Dancing Waves of Birsay

A tune from the book 'An Orkney Sampler- Music Inspired by Orkney's People & Places' by Hilary de Vries,

From slow waltzes to lively rhythms, tunes about mermaids, otters, ancient places, and cups of tea in the Peedie Kirk Hall, the book brings them all together to share some of the magic that is Orkney.
