Poor Girl Waltz

Hi friends and waltz lovers! Boy do I love a good Canadian crossover tune and today’s #waltzwednesday tune is a great example. Here we have the Poor Girl Waltz, which I know from the playing of the late, great Herman Johnson. But really, it’s an old Canadian favorite, recorded on the Brunswick label back in 1929. It has a melody that is totally of an era, doesn’t it? So pretty. I believe the amazing @fiddlechickpatti teaches it on the Fiddle Video platform (which I’m excited to be joining as an instructor in a few months) so maybe also go check it out there. This is a classic.
