Rating Review

Customer Rating Un très bon guide pour apprendre la technique Irlandaise, avec beaucoup de morceaux agréables à jouer. Le CD est un bon outil, et le livre contient toutes les explications. Néanmoins une base minimum est nécessaire en violon, qui se limite à une bonne maîtrise de la première position, et bien sûr la connaissance du solfège.

Customer Rating I found it a very good all round book. Quickly covers the basics (holding fiddle/bow, what notes are where on the music + violin and has a number of simple starter songs) and then for the bulk of the book goes through all the major parts of Irish fiddle, including ornamentation (slurs, cuts, slides) and all different types of songs (jigs, polkas etc), with a good number of songs on each type to learn. It's why I have given it 5 stars, the book teaches you a wide range of techniques to ornament songs yourself / recognise what a song is doing and also gives a good understanding of all the different types of fiddle songs. Also contains interesting bits of information / history about the fiddle / Irish music. Attached CD also good, contains all the songs/examples recorded to a high quality / standard.

Customer Rating What a wonderful book - it starts with the basics and becomes more challenging as it goes along. There's also some very interesting facts about the different types of fiddle music as well as Irish musical instruments and their backgrounds. A lovely book to own.
