We play the tunes as follows:

On the scheduled date we play the three listed tunes during the Gathering Time, followed by the tunes from the week before. During the Farewell Time we play the tunes for the scheduled date again, usually followed by a farewell tune that is chosen by consensus.

The tunes are played slowest during the Gathering Time and a tad faster during the Farewell Time, depending on the decisions of the leader.
