We have a “new” new tune for January, called The Bells Inn at Almeley and recently composed by someone who has been to the session – Nigel Chivers.
It’s in 3 parts but ignore the part names and just choose the one that best suits you, and please let me know if you would like me to produce another part with the so-called flute part down an octave.
The play list is here: ASS playlist for January
