Another excellent encylopedia from Kerr's, this time with 444 tunes, Kerrs Fourth Collection of Merry Melodies is another classic. As with volumes 0ne to three, the fourth collection is picked from a wide range of sources. Scottish and Irish reels and jigs, Strathspeys, Highland schottisches, country dances, hornpipes, clog dances, waltzes, polkas and more make the Kerrs Fourth Collection of Merry Melodies a great edition.
The Kerrs Series brings together so many well known tunes from the celtic music repertoire. Many, like the reels and strathspeys, are arranged in sets for dancing. These invaluable books have been the first resource for many traditional musicians and the tunes contained therein can be heard played at ceilidhs and sessions across the globe.
A 'must have' book for all students wishing to learn the tunes of the celtic music dance scene. Visit our book section on Kerr's Collections.
