CVSFC Repertoire

Tunes are listed by sheet number in each category, with keys, tempos and audio.
Click on a Sheet number to access a pdf file of the sheet music.
Sheets labelled with a letter suffix (e.g. M5a) are harmony parts.
Keys: m = minor; mix = Mixolydian; dor = Dorian (introduction to these modalities)
Metronome markings (bpm) are guidelines only.
Composers are credited where known. We will gladly make corrections. Please tell us.
Playing without sheet music is a goal, but not a requirement.
To assist learning tunes, they are also played more slowly at Slow Audio

These tunes are home-recorded by Peter Macfarlane.
They are not studio quality, being mostly single takes and unedited,
and are provided purely for use within the CVSFC context.
Thank you for your understanding.
