Session 12 - The Fürsteneck Session Part 2

Hello!
It's session time! This week it's the Fürsteneck Session part 2, in other words all the other tunes I taught! There is a lot of Playford in this session because I was teaching dance tunes and I wanted them to be as groovy as possible. The problem is that there are a lot fo groovy dance tunes in Playford 1651! I hope that you enjoy playing along!

Goddesses
Row Well Ye Mariners
Juice of the Barley (Stingo)
Millison's Jig
Nonesuch
Tongue in Cheek

Session 11 - The Fürsteneck Session Part 1

Hello!
It's session time! We've got a little behind on the sessions since the summer with workshops and gigs - but hopefully we're back on track for the rest of the year! I have just come back from teaching at Burg Fürsteneck and I promised everyone in my group that I would do a session with the tunes I taught. I love all the tunes and couldn't choose which to put in the session, so I'm going to do them all over two sessions. This is part 1!

Doodle Oak Cloggers into Childegrove
The Female Sayler into Dr Who Pirate jig
Hornpipe Hollandica
Lightening the Load (32 bar version)

As usual the session goes at 2pm on Sunday 24th October and stays up forever. See you then!

Session 10 - Playford Dance Tunes

Hello!
It's been a really busy August and we're in the middle of preparing for our first face-to-face dance with dancers! We're working with a great caller called Bob Morgan, we've done quite a lot of Zoom dances with him so it'll be strange to not be looking at him in a little box. (If I get any footage I'll edit it into the session!) The lessons will be created during this week. (I hadn't clocked that so many hadn't been done yet, they're all great relatively simple tunes to play!)

As usual the session goes at 2pm on Sunday 5th September and stays up forever. See you then!

Session 8: Vicki & Jonny's Waltz Tunes Part 2

Hello!
We decided that we should do another session of waltz tunes. We've been creating a nice little list of waltzes that we've written over the years to finish Zoom dances with this year and we'd love them to be played all over the world! So this is the best way to get them out there - to play them! There will be a part 3 in due course!

One for Diana
The Race for Home
Poppy's Present
The Revelstoke Wedding

As usual the session goes at 2pm on Sunday 4th July and stays up forever. See you then!

Session 7: Swedish Tunes for Midsommar

Hello!
Midsommar isn't actually until the the 26th June. But our session is either side, so we've gone for before rather than after! Some very well known Swedish tunes appear this week!

As usual the session will premier at 2pm on Sunday 20th June. See you on Sunday - or any time after that!
