This
volume is intended as a
folio of arrangements
from the repertoire of a
working musician. As
such, there is only a
minimum of discussion
about the technical
aspects of playing.
Students who have already
dealt with the American
style called
fingerpicking or
fingerstyle guitar, which
is quite distinct from
other kinds of guitar
playing, will be at an
advantage. The easiest
arrangements here are
early intermediate level,
while the other end of
the scale includes pieces
that may challenge even a
professional. Tunes
within each section are
presented generally in
order of difficulty. The
bulk of the tunes
presented are fiddle
tunes, with a couple of
banjo tunes and several
songs as well as tunes
originally played on
other instruments such as
harp, pipes, or
accordion. There are even
a small number composed
for the guitar. For the
most part, differences in
approach among the tunes
here are unrelated to the
instrumental sources. All
the tunes are presented
in notation and
tablature. Includes
access to online
audio.
