[Harp-L] St. Anne's Reel and a pragmatic tuning for same

["Gary Lehmann" <hqr@xxxxxxx>]

Hello folk harpers--
In my attempts to create tunings for the instrumentals I perform with a
local folk music ensemble, I have been retuning diatonic harmonicas of late.
St. Anne's Reel gets played a lot, and I wasn't happy with any of the
tunings, so I got busy and now I have a variation of Paddy Richter (oops,
retuned the one I made two days ago) that I am not finding referenced
anywhere.
It goes as follows:
1 4 6 1 3 5 1 3 5 8
3 5 7 2 4 6 7 2 4 6
Those being the major scale degrees.
And so I have two questions for those who are interesting in replying:
Is this an existing tuning, and
What do most folks use to play this tune? Do they just play it in standard
tuning in the higher octave?
Thanks,
Gary
