ENGLISH
TUNES PRACTICE SESSIONS
2008
‘The Lewes
Favourites’
These are a regular opportunity to practice tunes
popular in local English sessions, whatever instrument you play, to
whatever standard, and whether or not you read music. It's a chance to
identify some of those tunes you recognise when you hear them but can't quite
remember, to put the names to familiar tunes, and to play them over until you
are sure of them. You can record the sessions. Admission is free.
You can download 180 of the tunes in Noteworthy
Composer, ABC and midi form from the Lewes Arms Folk Club website www.members.aol.com/lewesarmsfolk: go to Links and then to Lewes Favourites.
The 'Lewes
Favourites' tune book compiled by Andy Warburton contains background
information and pictures as well. It is available from the contacts below or
through the website, price £10 plus £1 p&p, by cheque payable to ‘Lewes Arms Folk
Club’.
