Ginger and Peppermint
by @pippa
Liner Notes
This tune sat in my unfinished folder for the longest time. I mean, years! Then within the last ten hours or so of FAWM 2025, it decided it was time to get finished and it slipped in under the wire. It came, I think, from a good cup of tea that hit the spot one afternoon long ago.

Very pleasant and comforting. Great job.

This is so lovely. I love the title - it's really evocative, but I just listened twice to pick up the tune properly and it's really subtle and unusual. I'm going to hsve a go at playing it tomorrow (on my fiddle) if that's OK?

This is a lovely tune, and I could see a sweet English Country Dance going on to it. I love ginger and peppermint tea also. I've written a few dance tunes, but never thought to write one for FAWM. That should be on my list for next year. #listeningskirmish
