| Item Description | Skinner describes Gertie Gibb as a Nursery Schottische, to be played simply. The melody in the Harp and Claymore is the same, but the bass line is cleaner and neater, usually with just four single notes in each bar, with no chords. The skipping rhythm has a certain childlike charm, kept light by the moduation from D major to E major in the second section. Compare this version with JSS0640. |
