Music for a Found Harmonium
February 22nd, 2009
Is it possible to think of anything sad or depressing while listening to this? I don’t think so. I sure can’t. I’ll post two versions, the first is the “reel” version that became famous as a result of being used at the end of the movie Napoleon Dynamite, the second is the original version, which has a more ethereal quality

The Los Angeles Guitar Quartet has an interesting rendition of this piece on their “Air and Ground” CD. It’s a fun piece.
Thanks for posting those two versions of that tune. I added them to my Playlist.com playlist. Good stuff…
And you’re right, it’s pretty hard to be stay in a bad mood if you listen to that piece.
Sounds like something fun for A Lutheran pot-luck or picnic – dance anyone? I like it!
And here I thought Patrick Street invented that number. As an avid fan (and player) of Irish Trad, I of course prefer the first version
