La Bruxa

When I first started playing fiddle at the Sonoma county sessions Roxanne used to play this tune on her accordion. I happened to get a hand written copy of the sheet music from my fiddle teacher (Janette Duncan). I found the copy last year and started playing the tune, the melody is so haunting it runs through my head constantly. I know it was recently taught at sierra camp, and the rumor is a certain fiddle and cello player have recorded it for there next CD. Please learn this tune so I have someone to play it with.
