Thread Name: Tune Req: A dotted hornpipe
Subject: RE: Tune Req: A dotted hornpipe
Some of my favourites at the moment are the Sportsman's Hornpipe, Lemmie Brazil's no.2 and the Shepton Mallet Hornpipe. I don't know of any web pages with them on, but they're both in Dave Townsend's English Dance Music books (Dave doesn't write them out dotty, but they can all be played like that)

I particularly like the structure of the Sportsmans, it's got a great twist in the B music which really lifts it.

Cheers
