Description :

This collection of Celtic Music for Violin by Jessica Walsh contains 40 pieces ranging from lovely portraits to lively jigs. They come from traditions including Irish, Scottish, Welsh and Manx and span several hundred years. They are all complemented by the unique personality and sound of the violin. All have that inexplicable but necessary magic, the quality that draws the player to begin the tune again, just one more time. . . Whether a lilt, a love song, or lament, each melody in this collection is a gem; many are sure to become your cherished favourites. The accompanying CD includes demonstrations of all the tunes in the book and also, Allan Alexander artfully rendersthe chords on guitar, providing a harmonic tapestry over which the melodies float.
