The Roses of Prince Charlie

⚡ The Short Version

A stately opener. For a solo set or a band medley — the tune's strong opening bars make it a natural march to lead with.

Rhythm and execution carry equal weight. Dot-cut notes need to stay short even going into a doubling, and even eighth notes need to stay even even coming out of a taorluath.

Doublings from short notes are non-negotiable. A short D into an E doubling, or a short F into an E doubling from high A, both have to stay clean without pausing to fit the embellishment in.
