This wonderfully diverse collection explores the world of traditional fiddle music from Irish to Gipsy and from Bluegrass to Latin-American, with many other exciting and intriguing styles along the way. The CD reflects this diversity with supporting bands featuring an extraordinary variety of instrumental colours including authentic sounds drawn from the Celtic countries, central and eastern Europe, and from the Americas.
The arrangements can be performed as solos or duets (or played by larger ensembles), accompanied by piano, violin or guitar, with or without the CD accompaniment.
Above all, this is music to play and enjoy with other people.
The edition is part of the Trinity syllabus 2007 (grade 1,2,3).
