Reviews

“I would recommend the collection to all lovers of Gaelic airs.”

Custoemr

“The original idea was to write a collection for brass players, the compilers realised that other musicians might also be interested in the variety of tunes printed. And a good proportion of tunes in the book are in keys accessible to young brass players.
