WHITBY FOLK WEEK 2025

August 18th - 22nd 2025
CONCERTINA PART-PLAYING (and any melody instrument) with
SPARE PARTS CONCERTINA BAND
Here are the three-part arrangements of tunes we're bringing to Whitby Folk Week 2025.
We're running sessions for all concertina systems and any melody instrument. We have five practice sessions on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. and Friday all at 10:00 – 11:20 in the Rugby Club.
We expect to be taking two sets of the arranged tunes we've worked on to the final workshop concert on Friday in the Spa Pavilion Hall. These are Del Caro's Hornpipe/The Hornet and Galopede (on its own). Taking part in that concert isn’t compulsory - the main idea is to enjoy playing the arrangements together.
To provide variety we'll also play an extra, easier arrangement each day but we're not aiming to get those ready for performance unless people particularly want to do them.
The practice schedule will be as follows -
- Monday
-
Del Caro’s HP / the Hornet
Additional tune: Tollhurst - Tuesday
-
Galopede
Additional tune: Mary Ellen Waltz - Wednesday
-
Del Caro’s HP / The Hornet
Additional tune: Mr Beveridge’s Maggot - Thursday
-
Galopede
Additional tune: Sun Assembly - Friday
-
Both sets in preparation for the workshop showcase concert in the afternoon
