This collection of reels, jigs, hornpipes, set dances and O'Carolan melodies are the favorite tunes played in pubs and at parties by Irish players around the world.
Each tune is masterfully demonstrated on tinwhistle by L.E. McCullough, played slowly first and then up-to-speed to make each one easier to learn.
This popular and invaluable instructional tool has been vastly improved by the addition of back-up tracks, as well as suggested chords in the written music. Learn each tune as played by the whistle or transcribed in the book, then turn off the melody and play along with Nancy Conescu's guitar and T.H. Gillespie's keyboard parts for a great practice session. We've even added a four-click countoff at the start of each piece so you can come in right at the first beat!
Now that it's on CD, you can access any tune instantly for an immediate instrumental workout. Whether you play fiddle, accordion, flute, tinwhistle, banjo, bouzoukie, guitar or any other instrument, your skills will be sharpened to allow you to hold your own in any Irish music gathering.
