Hi Sessioneers,
Welcome to the Spring 2012 link for our Session Workshop tunes! We’ll be meeting every other week for 7 weeks starting January 17. I’ve asked everyone to provide 3 tunes they’d like to learn and we’ll try to choose the new tunes from that list as our new tunes and then put those in a set with tunes we’ve covered previously. No worries if you only have time to learn one of the two new tunes. I’m just putting two out there for those who either already know one of them, or who just want to learn two tunes.
New Tunes for January 31st Class:
(Jig) Mist on the Mountain Watch View Notation Key of Am
(Hornpipe) Home Ruler Watch View Notation Key of D
[Note: Found these tunes on a YouTube channel where both the melody and guitar accompaniment are nice and clear. Their channel has quite a few good session tunes (including some on our list). Thanks to Holly and Sue for the tune suggestions! Keep 'em coming! Also Mist on the Mountain is also known as Mist Covered Mountain and on the Home Ruler link, Kitty's Wedding, another hornpipe, is also played. This is one of the most popular hornpipe sets and the two tunes are almost always played together.]
Jig Set (3x each)
Timmy Cliffords’s Listen View Notation Key of G
Garrett Barry’s Watch View Notation Key of Dm
Jimmy Ward’s Listen View Notation Key of G
