| "Celtic Music for Flute and Guitar" by Allan Alexander and
Jessica Walsh (flute) contains 20 songs transcribed for guitar and a separate
section for flute, most of them originating from Ireland and Scotland as well as
charming original pieces written in the Celtic style by Allan. The music is
presented in both music notation and guitar tablature (for people that do not
read music). Play the beautiful haunting melodies of the Irish Harper O'Carolan,
take a musical journey with dances that were written more than 400 years ago.
The CD that accompanies the book, is masterly recorded by Allan and Jessica
giving the musician an in depth listening experience of these great performers
and will certainly make the learning process easier. Songs include: Nynth Gwcw,
Hewlett, Cary Jane, Song of the Chanter, A Lilt, Road To Listonvarna, Carolan's
Farewell, Jenny Pluck Pears, The Exile Song, Kathrine Bairdie, Pastheen Fionn,
My Thousand Times Beloved, Linda's Love, Heartland Air, Mrs. Farrell, Rug Muir
Mac de Dhia, Carolan's Memories, Separation of Soul and Body, Woe Betyd Thy
Wearie Bodie, Manx Lullaby.
