A collection of 23 Celtic songs arranged for Guitar with standard notation and Tab. Includes a comprehensive guide to Flatpicking Celtic style Guitar, and also a CD of examples. For me, playing the Guitar is all about finding pieces of music that you want to play over and over again. I don't know a formula for what makes up a great piece, but I know it when I hear it. A good piece of music is not a page with notes hanging in a museum, it is music you come back to ten years later and love it just as much as you did when you first heard it. Whether it’s a classic piece by O'Carolan, or a traditional piece in the Celtic tradition, that is what I believe you will find inthis book. Quite simply, these are beautiful arrangements of Celtic Music that you will keep you coming back. So if you love playing the guitar, and you are looking for music you will be playing for a lifetime, this is the book for you. Allan Alexander/ Recueil / Guitare
