ENGLISH TUNES PRACTICE
SESSIONS

'The Lewes Favourites'

If you would like to play English dance music, here is an opportunity to meet other players to learn and swap tunes regardless of what instrument you play, to what standard, and whether or not you read music. This will be a chance to nail down some of those tunes that you recognise when you hear them but can't quite remember, to put the names to familiar tunes, and to play them over slowly until you are sure of them. Printed music and computer software are available for 180 of the Lewes area's favourite tunes.
The tunes are now available as a book, price £10, illustrated with dance notations from Sussex manuscripts, anecdotes, photographs of the habitats where they flourish and an index of the combinations in which they are often played. Click here for ordering details.   Alternatively, you can obtain them in various computerised forms.  Discreet tape recorders are welcome if you don't read music.

We meet in the upstairs room of The Elephant and Castle, White Hill, Lewes 8 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of the month
