Stower Tune Req: Pre-1700 winter & Christmas tunes, pls (57* d) RE: Tune Req: Pre-1700 winter & Christmas tunes, pls 07 Oct 11


Thank you, thank you, thank you all! We had a practice last night and decided more or less on a working set list (which may change), which will be something approaching this, chronologically, running order to be decided. What actually gets put in or left out may well depend on how quickly we learn a piece (which often has little to do with what you *intend* to learn! Have you ever discovered that you practice one thing hard while learning something else accidentally by osmosis?):
