Last Scandi course session for this term.

It's been a really good course this term, a lovely mix of musicians and a lot of tunes!
The last piece we did was this polska from Karin Wallin and next weekend those who can will come to the museum of childhood to perform last weeks Engelska tunes with the Trad Academy's other courses.
Here is the Leipzig polska:
and the dots:



I am aware that some of you found it difficult to access the notation on this page and I will look into that as soon as possible.

Fifth Scandi course session - Engelska

Last week we did a long Engelska set and here are the dots and recordings. I am aware that especially the Amajor tune was a bit tricky on melodeon (although its is not as tricky as it might seem!) and maybe a few other instruments too. Therefore I have added a melodeon/other instruments edit of the tune too. We're back to the polskas this week although we'll also run through the Engelska's again. Hope to see you there for our last session of this term and don't forget that there is a performance opportunity with the group on St Georges Day, Saturday the 23rd of April where the plan is to play and dance Engelska together with other groups from the Trad Academy!
 

And then the anti-accidental/low notes version (just endings and A part, everything else the same as above):
