This wonderful collection of Irish melodies contains 32 tunes composed by the great blind 17th century Irish harpist and poet, Turlough O’Carolan. There is even information in the back of the book about O’Carolan, and the tunes, to help folks understand how and why O’Carolan composed them. Guitar chord symbols for accompaniment are included.
Each Tunes for Two collection consists of individual spiral-bound duet books presented in score form with melody on the top line and harmony beneath so you can play each tune by yourself or with others. Duo arrangements of the tunes in this collection, in the same keys, are available for violins, violas, cellos, basses, mandolins, and soprano recorders.
The tunes in this collection are laid out so that there are no page turns to interrupt the flow of your playing.
PDFs are available worldwide for each of the books in the Tunes for Two series.
