Thanks to the folks at the PEGRAM JAM for this collection. They describe themselves as follows: The Pegram Jam began when a group of folks (mostly fiddle students) started playing Old Time/String Band music together in Pegram, Tennessee, just west of Nashville, back in December 2001. We were told by our teachers that we needed to practice with other musicians.
Kirk decided to offer a room in his home to hold a weekly jam. Folks just kept coming every Tuesday, much to our complete amazement. There is also a PDF version of this chart book available from their site. Here you will find the sequence of chord changes for a large number of popular session tunes and songs. Each page has about 10 charts on it. Adieu Foulard, Alabama Jubilee, Aly’s Waltz, Angeline The Baker, Arkansas Traveler, The Ash Grove p1. Irishtune.info Irish Traditional Music Tune Index. Chris Peterson's Traditional Music. Traditional Music This is a collection of (mostly) traditional music to look at, listen to, or download at your convenience. The emphasis is on traditional Celtic tunes, but there are some others you may find interesting, as well. Sound files are General MIDI, and tempos are friendly, but not slow.
Sheet music is in the GIF format; a few tunes are two pages long, so be sure to get both if you want the tune. Tunes marked with a dot are basic repertoire tunes, generally considered useful for beginners to know, at least where I live (it varies somewhat by region). As far as I know, all of these tunes are in the public domain. Remember, this is folk music. Click on the title to hear the tune, and click on [sheet music] to see it.
