Playford in Shorts

For the 400th anniversary of John Playford's birthday I decided to film the entire first edition of 1651 and publish them as YouTube Shorts. I called this #PlayfordinShorts

I am now expanding this page and adding in the live dance versions that we've done. I've also completed the second edition and will work my way through the third edition soon!

The tune names in brackets are my change tunes by Jonny and Myself.

I'm working on this page still!
