I happen to love cold frosty mornings, though this tune was written in remembrance of the gruesome battle of Culloden Moor in 1746. It starts in A minor, then onto a major sound. We'll learn a harmony part, too, and work on our improvisation using target notes!

There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.
