which works well _before_
Calliope House is the Northumbrian jig The Roman Wall, a version of The
Eavesdropper. A young fiddler I accompany picked it up at the Folkworks Summer
School from Peter Tickell (he'd learnt it from one of my books, The Morpeth
Rant, not currently in print).
I found these with John Chambers Tune Finder. Are they the tunes you refer to? I can't quite figure our how to transition to an E tune, unless I transpose it to A. But I wanted to find out if these were the tunes you meant. I At first listening I'm not sure I hear a close relationship between these two tunes.
