Oxford Slow Session

Play music together… slowly. First Sunday of the month.

Archived tunes

These are tunes that we once played but don’t currently… so I’ve parked them here in case we return to them and this way we can focus on the tunes we do play and the list is a little less intimidating for new sessionistas.
