Session
Tunes of the Greenwich Traditional Musicians Co-operative
These tunes have largely been
transcribed from musicians who have played at the session
at the Cricketers in Greenwich. As traditional tunes we are not aware
of any copyrights
which may have been infringed, except where we not
that the author
has given permission. Please
do not hesitate to contact us if you believe your
copyright has been abused.
These tunes have all been
played at the
session in Greenwich. Overall
there
are several hundred tunes which have been played over the last few
years, but this
selection should cover the most common ones. We hope that providing
these tunes will
encourage visitors, whether fairly new to traditional music or more
experienced to attend.
Please do not wait to know all the tunes - that is not possible - and
in any case we don't
promise to play them the same way twice.
We have also begun to include
some compositions by members.
Enjoy - it's what the music is
there for.
We also have some live
recordings of tunes which people
have requested and a CD which you can buy on our products page.

Live Recordings
There have been a number of requests for
copies
of CDs which we have of live recordings from the session. We produced
these for ourselves as mementoes, but others have asked for them as an
aid to learning tunes. Below are links to some of the tunes in .wma
format, which hopefully people can play. They are not intended as
samples or demo tapes - they are simple pub recordings. We have these
available on a CD for those with very slow connections, or who don't
like .wma for £6 inc p&p on our products page.
Let us know if you are interested in traditional music. Mind you,
listening to a recording should be no substitute for coming, getting a
drink and listening or even taking part ...
