Lament - Low whistle solo by Ian Melrose

Lament - composed by Ian Melrose. Published by Acoustic Music Records (used by permission) This is a lament I wrote some years ago after the death of my father - sometimes it’s easier to express feelings through music. I am indebted to Gil Murray for the permission to use his beautiful pictures. This piece is also already on a CD called “Kein schöner Land...“ (Acoustic Music Records) with my great friend and accordion virtuoso Manfred Leuchter. When we play this live Manfred follows this with one of the most beautiful solo renditions of J.S. Bach’s “Jesu, joy of man’s desiring“ I have ever heard. You can check out the album here: The Bach video: The low whistle I play was made by Colin Goldie - a true craftsman. His website:
