Folk Tunes for Recorders

This collection of traditional folk music for recorders was arranged by the late Geoffrey Ginn who, during the 1960s and 1970s, attended folk camps run by Folk Camps Society Ltd.  He wrote the arrangements for primary school-aged pupils.

These multi-part recorder tune arrangements are freely available for download, print or performance, either singly or as a complete document for use by anyone who wishes to perform the music for their own pleasure, for educational purposes or for a charitable or non-commercial nature. For use of this material in any other way, please contact Folk Camps Society Limited.

You can download the book containing scores for all the tunes or listen to MP3 sound files of the arrangements and download PDF files for individual tunes further down this page.

This book was produced via a Folk Camps Development Fund Grant.
