Plenty of American tunes on Saturday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday afternoons, if I remember rightly, when a group of excellent musicians from York come across.   Plenty of English tunes then as well.   The evenings in the Board tend to be mainly English.


Hope you find somewhere

Joy

It all depends on who turns up. We have been at the Board when Nick Barber and Neil Brookes have been there. English tunes are the order of the day.
If you want a workshop on English tunes in harmony, come to our workshop at the Con club on Thursday, 10am. You don't have to learn the harmonies - you can just learn the tunes from Bray, Playford, William Clarke, Atkinson.

Amazingly whenever I have visited the Board it has been predominantly American material?

The Board in Church Street, at the bottom of the 199 steps, is a gathering place for lovers of English music.

I believe Ken Watson hosts an English tune workshop/session so that could be a starting point for you

Which is OK if you recognise the names. Maybe Guest could give some pointers.

I have not heard of anything being explicitly organised as an English session. For the official sessions be guided by the choice of session leaders.

The Elsinore is mostly English tunes, but other stuff does get played. Which is fine by me.
