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!)

• Half Hannekin
• Sellengers Round
• Millison's Jig
• Epping Forest
• Chestnut or Dove's Figary
• The Indian Queen
• PDF of the Dots

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
The Willows

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

Hello!
Time to let you know the tunes for the second session! As you might have spotted we played for Medieval Music in the Dales the other week and we played quite a few Spanish Cantigas. So this week you're getting four Cantigas. Three of them played on the sienaharpa and one on the moraharpa. Of course they're all quite playable on the normal harpa.

As usual there are video lessons for each tune, but you'll need to be logged in to view those. The session is open to anyone to watch and play along with.

• Cantiga 166 de Alfonso X "Vox Vulgaris"
• Çantigas de Sante Maria No. 353
• Çantigas de Sante Maria No. 417
• A Virgen Mui Grioriosa - Cantiga 42
• Download a pdf of the dots

The session will premier at 2pm on Sunday 18th April - but as usually don't worry if you can't watch it then, it'll stay up!
