Celtic Music, in all its diversity – its mysticism, catchy tunes and, at times, its characteristically accentuated rhythms, is the traditional music from many parts of the British Isles and Brittany. The roots of this music are found in rhythmical songs, originally without instrumental accompaniment. The instruments we consider typical today were only added during the 18th century, namely, the fiddle, tin whistle, bodhran (an Irish frame drum) and the uilleann pipes (a bagpipe). They lend this folk music its characteristic sound. Popular kinds of melodies or rhythms of Celtic Music are the reel, jig, hornpipe and polka. Middle-grade recorder players will welcome this new edition of traditional music from Scotland and Ireland. The true secret of Celtic Music lies in the emotion – it's an instinctive kind of music. Melodies and lyrics are inseparably linked and reach out to the soul of every listener. You will easily find the lyrics to the pieces used in this volume on the internet. Enjoy singing and playing them!
