Melnet Tune of the month September 2010 - The Liberty Bell by John Philip Sousa.
Played by Anahata on an Oakwood D/G melodeon with standard accidentals.
The third section should go into C if the tune started in G, but that's almost impossible to play on a D/G melodoen. Many melodeon players stay in G, but I found using D instead of C means you still get a key change, and it's quite playable.
Also I deciphered the tricky 8 bar bridge passage leading to the final repeat; it's nothing like Sousa's original and I have done a thoroughly dirty and evil job of mangling it to fit the limitations of the instrument.
This is still very scrappy with a lot of missed notes. I know what I'm supposed to be doing, my fingers just haven't quite caught up yet, but it shows the general idea of what I meant to do. Call it work in progress if you like.
