24 Country Dance Tunes for the Year ’26

Direct Link

During the last couple of years I've been writing som very specific change tunes for some very specific dances. I decided I wanted to present these tunes in a "24 Country Dance Tunes for the Year '26"
When I managed to complete the manuscript in time for April Fool's Day 2026 it was an opportunity too good to miss. However... the tunes exist in all seriousness and it is a serious manuscript of tunes that we play for dance. I just fancied being creative in how I presented it! I hand wrote the whole thing using "pointed pen" (metal dip nib) and then hand bound the book. I'm still working through getting video of all the tunes.
