In this lesson, you’ll learn the reel “Anything for John Joe.” It’s what is often called a “half reel” or “single reel,” meaning there are only 16 measures in the whole tune. Marla starts by playing “Anything for John Joe” through a couple times and then takes it apart slowly, phrase by phrase.

In this lesson, Marla gives you advice about the etiquette and traditions of playing in an Irish seisiún (generally pronounced the same as “session”), and creating “sets” of tunes. She talks about some common sets, how to be prepared for tunes to change within a set, and how to create your own sets.
