The Tune of the Month

This room has been created to compliment the weekly lessons of the Classroom and to encourage all subscribers to increase their repertoire by at least one tune a month beyond what would normally be done through band or other private instruction. Tunes will be selected in response to subscribers requests on a regular basis.

In most cases, the history of the tune with composer and publisher will be indicated. Having this information is a must for all players - get to know the origins of our music.


This is one of my favorite airs, first heard in a medley from the 78th Highlanders of Halifax, Nova Scotia

The Circle of the Ocean

This month's tune  comes from the pen of Jim Wark and Eric Ward, formerly with the Strathclyde Police Pipe Band - a nice little polka with some syncopation.
