Snowflake Reelby Steve Kaufman Hi Friends: Here is a great number from my upcoming Mel Bay book Kaufman's Favorite Fifty Traditional American Fiddle Tunes for Mandolin Vol. S-W out soon and at a store near you. What I love about this tune is the [B] section. It is not your typical chord progression. Who would have thought of putting a Bb melody line into a D tune but it works great. The first part plays easily enough and the only real place you will have any kind of trouble would be in the 2nd part probably measures 11-12-13.
