Paul Hardy’s Annex Tunebook 1
Paul Hardy’s Annex Tunebook
Introduction
This tunebook contains tunes waiting to be incorporated into Paul Hardy’s Session Tunebook, eitherbecause they are new (to me), or because they have been substantially improved since the SessionTunebook was issued.Most are traditional tunes from the British Isles, many of Celtic origin, particularly Irish dance tunes,but others are from an eclectic mix of sources. Some have been adapted from Internet resources,originally in abc, midi or visual score formats. Others have been learned by ear or handouts fromvarious sessions in the UK and US. All are believed free of current copyright (unless noted explicitly),or else appear to have been placed in the public domain as part of the ongoing live folk music tradition.Please let me know if you are the owner of any that are under access restrictions and I’ll remove them.I have tried to choose the simple versions of most tunes, without much decoration and interpretation, soadd your own triplets, grace notes and variations. I have also included guitar chords, based on my(dubious) interpretation of computer generated ones if not present at the tune’s source.This tunebook has been prepared using the abcm2ps software, with help from abcmus, MelodyAssistant, and ABCexplorer. A big thank you goes to those creative and dedicated people who givetheir time to create and maintain low−cost or free and open source software for abc music editing andoutput.Particular thanks also go to Greenshoots (www.greenshootsmusic.org.uk) for the slow sessions nearCambridge in England that let me learn many of these tunes; the concertina sessions at Chiltinas nearBedford in England that gave me confidence; the Ceili House Band in Redlands in California thatopened my eyes and ears to the range of Irish music; to the celtic jam sessions at Green Valley Lake inthe nearby San Bernadino Mountains that broadened my repertoire; and the Ceol Galore youngmusician practice sessions in my home village of Comberton that are carrying traditional music forwardto the next generation.The current version of this and the full session tunebook, in ABC and in PDF forms, is downloadablefrom Paul’s web site at www.paulhardy.net. See there also the previous (2009) Annex Tunebookversion which updates the 2009 Session Tunebook to 2010 content.
