Session tunes for Fiddle

SESSION

PRODUCTS

Combined Ho-ro-gheallaidh 1 & 2

A perfect bound double volume of the two session books. Contains all the material in the first two volumes with strong laminated binding.

In order to have a good session it is important to have a common repertoire of tunes and this is forever changing as musicians introduce new tunes to each other that they have learnt from many sources such as other musicians, music courses, fiddler teachers, Cds and travel in other countries. The material is very varied and often the tunes come not just from Scotland but from Ireland, Cape Breton, Scandinavia, and even Eastern Europe. As the tunes are passed on they often evolve like chinese whispers and the versions become slightly different and more influenced by Scottish music. For example there are many Scottish versions of Irish tunes. In this book we have a representative collection of the best tunes played in sessions in Scotland today. A collection of over 160 tunes many of which will be familiar from the playing of touring bands such as Blazin' Fiddles, Cliar, Wolfstone and Capercaillie.

Ho-ro-gheallaidh 2
