Reviews

"I really love the fact we can down load books. Its a great way for us to purchase."

Melinda

As a book for band use, however, the fiddle book is very helpful in arranging the tunes in sets with suggestions which dances the tunes best fit..........easy to read, and successful in gathering together many of Scotland’s best loved and most played tunes. If that is what you want, this book is for you.”
