Digital PDF sheet music - seven traditional folk tunes fromEngland, arranged in four-part harmony. Flexible arrangements suitable for string quartets, string orchestra, fiddle groups and various other string ensembles.

These English tune arrangements come in four parts: 

* melody line (the original tune)
* harmony 1
* harmony 2
* bass line

The harmonies and bass line are all provided in three versions: treble, alto and bass clef. This means the arrangements are flexible and can be used by various different instruments in duets, trios, quartets and larger groups.

You will receive various different versions of the score, plus individual instrument parts with the harmonies in all three clefs, so you can choose parts to use with a variety of different duos, trios, quartets and larger groups.

The scores are intended to be used as building blocks for creative musicians to build their own arrangements by weaving the different parts in and out, through multiple times through the tune.

However, you can also play a simple arrangement with all the parts in at once, so they can, for example, be used by a string quartet or string orchestra that needs a traditional Irish repertoire.

The tunes included are:

Old Molly Oxford
Mr Beveridge's Maggot
Laudanum Bunches
Sherbourne Waltz
The Cuckoo's Nest
Barham Down
Constant Billy

I also have two other packs of tunes: Irish, and Scottish.
