Monday Musicians meet once a month to play English and other folk dance music, led by Maggie Fletcher, Vic Godrich and Thomas Bending. We meet at Cecil Sharp House, Regent's Park Road, London NW1 7AY, UK, monthly from 7pm - 10pm on the second Monday of every month except August. NB The April 2012 meeting is Monday 16 April 2012, not the second Monday.
We play for pleasure and to swap tunes, and each year at Christmas we play for the EFDSS Carols and Customs celebration. Anyone playing any instrument to any standard is very welcome. We play tunes in a variety of keys, and you'll probably find it easier if you can read music (please bring a stand if you can). Sessions cost £4.50, or £3.50 if you're unwaged, but your first session is free.
We give out one or two new sheets of music each month, as well as playing through older ones. The sessions started in the 1930s, and Maggie Fletcher and Rick Smith started giving out numbered sheets in the 1970s so we're now up to sheet 381. Including supplementaries we've given out 414 sheets with 1223 tunes. You can see lists of the tunes by title or by sheet number, or download the data as a CSV file (36kB, last modified 9 February 2012), which can by read by databases and spreadsheets such as Microsoft Excel. Thanks to John Petts for his work on this data.
