Ievan’s Polkka

Polka in B-min

A tune from Finland this week (hence the alternative spelling of “polkka”) that has found its way into the Irish repertoire as well. This was recorded by the celebrated fiddler Kevin Burke who labeled it only as “A Finnish polka”, which is what many players know it as today.

Mandolin and banjo melody with guitar accompaniment.
