"Ringing Strings" is the playing of two or more strings simultaneously, similar to a drone effect, which gives Shetland traditional fiddle playing its distinctive characteristic style, similar to the Hardingfele music of Norway.

First published 1983, this fine book is a follow up to the wonderful "Haand Me Doon Da Fiddle" and  features traditional Shetland music and dance. The tunes are a mix of Tom Anderson's own compositions and traditional tunes from his collection of manuscript and archive recordings. Foreword, preface, performance notes, photos & drawings. Spiral-bound which makes it easy for all you fiddlers to open it on a music-stand !
