So many tunes, so little time. The New Hampshire Scottish Music Club tune library is massive, containing hundreds of tunes. This month, we’ll set aside our workshop time to explore some of the tunes from our repertoire. Our focus will be to have fun playing Scottish music.
If you have a physical copy of our Volume 3 (tunes from 2000 through 2006) bring it to the December gathering. If not, no worries. The list of the tunes we’ll be playing is below, with links to the music. Print them out and bring them along. We’ll be playing through the tunes and the music committee will ask your thoughts regarding whether or not they are worthy of putting into a future concert set.
If you have the time, play through the tunes before the gathering, If you don’t have the time, not to worry. We’ll start slow and pick up speed if the tune asks for a faster tempo once we have the notes under our fingers.
