Description
Enjoy the stunning evocative melodies of the rich Irish tradition with this special set of classical Guitar solos. John Loesberg presents a unique collection of arrangements, featuring many traditional harp melodies and dance tunes.
The book boasts no less than 27 pieces, many of which are suitable for elementary guitar students. However, also featured are several compositions by the 17th century harpist/composer O’Carolan, which are ideal for more advanced guitarists.
An accompanying CD of demonstrations perfectly illustrates the music, providing listeners with a useful guide to Irish phrasing and performance.
