Fred's Frolic - Playing in Bb

By Alan Munde

I wrote this tune for a good friend's retirement. I had been kicking around some fiddle tune ideas in B flat for sometime and finally forced myself to solidify my thinking into a the piece presented here. In order to make it flow, I had to use a pull-off or two in the opening section. It gives the music and slightly different feel than if those notes were picked. Hope you enjoy it, Fred did.

[Editor's note: Fred's Frolics can be found on Alan's solo "All Banjo, Nothing but Banjo" CD and the soon to be released CD and tab book MB20156 from Mel Bay.]
