The music in this small collection of folk songs from America and the British Isles have an agelessness and familiarity that combine to make them accessible and enjoyable. They are presented here arranged to be played by a quartet of guitarists of beginning to intermediate ability, but are versatile and attractive enough to be useful as duets or trios by players of more experience.

Description

This edition presents a four-part setting of each folk song followed by a varia-tion. Only the first guitar part goes higher than the fifth fret, and then only sparingly. The arrangements can be played by different types of guitars, including classical, steel string, electric, fingerstyle, and pick style in various combinations. They can also be played by guitars in combination with other instru-ments. Page turns are kept to a minimum. For those directors more at home on the piano, a piano score is also included. Within the style of this music, parallel intervals (5ths' and octaves) are often desirable.
