Many of John's own tunes have passed into the common repertoire: Jump At The Sun, Nipper, Pepper in the Brandy, As The Sun Was Setting & many more. In the workshop John will take you through a selection from his recently-published collection Jump At The Sun (Quarry House Publishing, [email protected]), explore ways of making them sparkle & possibly discuss where & how he finds his inspiration.
