Use the main Search page to browse tunes A–Z, filter by metadata, and open tune pages.
Use visual exploration pages to discover patterns, clusters, and relationships in the tune collection.
A network-style view of metadata such as key, rhythm, meter, origin, and complexity. Click nodes to filter the tune list.
Tunes positioned by harmonic similarity. Zoom in to see clusters and compare tunes with similar chord vocabularies.
See which chords commonly appear together across the library. Use search and filtering to declutter the view.
High-level distributions and exploratory charts for understanding patterns across the collection.
Reveal common harmonic motifs such as V–I and I–IV–V, and compare how different tune types build phrases.
Choose a dataset such as key, meter, rhythm, origin, or complexity. Click a bar to open the filtered tune list.
Shows how many unique chords tunes use. Lower counts usually indicate simpler harmonic language.
Shows the most common tune-to-tune transitions found in recordings from TheSession.org. Each bar represents how often one tune directly follows another in a recorded sequence.
Shows the most common tune-to-tune transitions found in sets shared on TheSession.org. Useful for spotting common session pairings and set-building habits.
Interactive drill-down trees. Click a node to continue exploring from that point or open related tunes.
Start from geographic origin, then drill into difficulty bands to find tunes for your level.
See the rhythms most associated with each origin and click through to the matching tunes.
Start with a rhythm such as reel or jig, then explore the keys most commonly associated with it.
Great for exploring which rhythms tend to be simpler or more harmonically involved.
Start with a key, then drill into time signatures and meters.
Start with a time signature such as 6/8, then see which keys are most common for that meter.
Start from a key and see which rhythms appear most often within it.
Start from a difficulty band and explore the keys commonly found at that level.
Start from a difficulty band and explore which meters are most common there.
Starting from a chosen tune, this tree shows which tunes most commonly follow it in recordings. Great for exploring recorded set flow and likely next-tune options.
Starting from a chosen tune, this tree shows which tunes most commonly follow it in shared sets. It is especially useful for practical set-building and discovering new follow-on choices.
Tools focused on flow of data, such as chord transitions and source distribution.
Thickness shows how often one chord moves to another. Useful for seeing common progressions by rhythm.
Shows how different sources contribute to different tune types such as reels, jigs, and hornpipes.
