Basic Fiddlers Philharmonic: Celtic Fiddle Tunes

Building on Basic Fiddlers Philharmonic: Old-Time Tunes, now we present an entire volume of very simple Celtic pieces! Basic Fiddlers Philharmonic: Celtic Fiddle Tunes is perfect for introducing fiddling to your youngest string players. Eleven tunes from the Celtic fiddling tradition are presented first in a simplified, very easy "basic" version of the tune, printed with note names in the note heads, followed by an "advanced" but still accessible version. Each version is on its own staff to avoid confusing young readers. Several options for simple backups and very basic improvisation tips are provided for each instrument. Lyrics are included where applicable. The accompaniment CD features recordings of the basic and the advanced tune as well as a backup track for playing along at home or in class. Available with the CD enclosed or separately.
