Hi everyone! Here are some tunes to work on. Linked versions are generally the ones that I used to learn a tune. Usually I depend on Walk Koken, Stephanie Coleman, or Bruce Molsky.

Good sources: TuneArch, The Session (Irish), Slower Than Dirt (slow jam), Milliner-Koken Collection book and recordings,

Fiddle tunes

Over the Waterfall (D)

Transcription at TuneArch

Shove that pig’s foot a little bit further into the fire (G or D)

Slow recording, link to faster version (though this with a fiddle cross tuned in F, I think) and here’s one with some nice harmonies. Notation at TuneArch.

Coleman’s March (D)

Link, with some really nice second fiddle low harmony; TuneArch has one page with notation and some history and another with more versions notated.
