Another One Hundred Tunes” Published October 25, 2013
O’Flaherty Irish Music Retreat “Another One Hundred Tunes” Published October 25, 2013 We decided to issue a third tunebook in celebration of the tenth year of the O’Flaherty Irish Music Retreat. It is hard to believe that a decade has passed since we held our first event at the Springhill Retreat Center in Richardson, Texas back in October of 2004. None of us who organized that first event had any indication that it would grow as it has. What started as a small local music camp has given rise to a well-respected international camp attracting participants from near and far. We have been successful over the years because of two primary factors – good teachers and good learners. Fortunately, we have never had a shortage of either so we have not only survived, but have expanded greatly in both scope and size since our founding. There is one other factor of our success that is important to remember – the music itself. Traditional Irish music is unlike any music I’ve known. On one hand, I have seldom encountered music more difficult to master. Playing “authentically” is the goal but that goal can take years if not a lifetime of listening, practicing and playing. On the other hand, the music by its nature is so accessible that it permits players to engage in it at any level of ability. It is not uncommon for experienced players to encourage novices and help establish a connection with this remarkable music tradition. That connection is the essence of what we try to do at our retreat – pass on the music as musicians have done in Ireland for centuries. -

Contemporary Folk Dance Fusion Using Folk Dance in Secondary Schools
Unlocking hidden treasures of England’s cultural heritage Explore | Discover | Take Part Contemporary Folk Dance Fusion Using folk dance in secondary schools By Kerry Fletcher, Katie Howson and Paul Scourfield Unlocking hidden treasures of England’s cultural heritage Explore | Discover | Take Part The Full English The Full English was a unique nationwide project unlocking hidden treasures of England’s cultural heritage by making over 58,000 original source documents from 12 major folk collectors available to the world via a ground-breaking nationwide digital archive and learning project. The project was led by the English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS), funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and in partnership with other cultural partners across England. The Full English digital archive (www.vwml.org) continues to provide access to thousands of records detailing traditional folk songs, music, dances, customs and traditions that were collected from across the country. Some of these are known widely, others have lain dormant in notebooks and files within archives for decades. The Full English learning programme worked across the country in 19 different schools including primary, secondary and special educational needs settings. It also worked with a range of cultural partners across England, organising community, family and adult learning events. Supported by the National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund, the National Folk Music Fund and The Folklore Society.

Hornpipes and Disordered Dancing in the Late Lancashire Witches: a Reel Crux?
Early Theatre 16.1 (2013), 139–49 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12745/et.16.1.8 Note Brett D. Hirsch Hornpipes and Disordered Dancing in The Late Lancashire Witches: A Reel Crux? A memorable scene in act 3 of Thomas Heywood and Richard Brome’s The Late Lancashire Witches (first performed and published 1634) plays out the bewitching of a wedding party and the comedy that ensues. As the party- goers ‘beginne to daunce’ to ‘Selengers round’, the musicians instead ‘play another tune’ and ‘then fall into many’ (F4r).1 With both diabolical interven- tion (‘the Divell ride o’ your Fiddlestickes’) and alcoholic excess (‘drunken rogues’) suspected as causes of the confusion, Doughty instructs the musi- cians to ‘begin againe soberly’ with another tune, ‘The Beginning of the World’, but the result is more chaos, with ‘Every one [playing] a seuerall tune’ at once (F4r). The music then suddenly ceases altogether, despite the fiddlers claiming that they play ‘as loud as [they] can possibly’, before smashing their instruments in frustration (F4v). With neither fiddles nor any doubt left that witchcraft is to blame, Whet- stone calls in a piper as a substitute since it is well known that ‘no Witchcraft can take hold of a Lancashire Bag-pipe, for itselfe is able to charme the Divell’ (F4v). Instructed to play ‘a lusty Horne-pipe’, the piper plays with ‘all [join- ing] into the daunce’, both ‘young and old’ (G1r). The stage directions call for the bride and bridegroom, Lawrence and Parnell, to ‘reele in the daunce’ (G1r). At the end of the dance, which concludes the scene, the piper vanishes ‘no bodie knowes how’ along with Moll Spencer, one of the dancers who, unbeknownst to the rest of the party, is the witch responsible (G1r). -
The Quintessentially English Tune an Appraisal of the ʻcut-Timeʼ Hornpipe, Using Examples from the Burnett Ms
The Quintessentially English Tune An appraisal of the ʻCut-Timeʼ Hornpipe, using examples from the Burnett Ms. c.1840 By Paul Davenport, Cert.Ed., M.Mus. This essay was written in response to the arrogant declaration in GCSE Music guidance notes which declare that a ʻsimple folk melodyʼ will only earn the candidate a minimal mark at examination. Introduction As a brief and somewhat cursory introduction to this musical form it might be said that the hornpipe appears to have begun its life in the 17th century as a tune in ʻtripleʼ time, being set in time signatures of 3/2. 6/4 or even 9/8. Gathering and retaining popularity throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, it gradually began to recede from the popular milieu in the 18th century and was effectively extinct by the early 19th century having been succeeded by its progeny the 2/2, or ʻcut-timeʼ, hornpipes. The earlier form enjoyed a revival of interest amongst vernacular musicians in the late 20th century due to the publication, by John Offord, of his collection, ʼJohn of the Greeny Cheshire Wayʼ. Players of traditional music in the North-West of England are currently particularly interested in this form of the tune. Curiously, and this is never remarked upon by the players themselves, a majority of this generation had been introduced to the 3/2 hornpipe at school via ʻThe Young Personʼs Guide to the Orchestraʼ by Britten whose musical vehicle was Purcellʼs ʻRondo in Abdelazerʼ. This melody is a triple time hornpipe, one of two in the larger work, the second being published in the guise of a country dance tune by Playford as, ʻThe Hole in the Wallʼ. -
