DIGITAL (PDF) SHEET MUSIC

This is a collection of 40 traditional folk tunes, arranged for a violin (or another melody instrument) playing the main tune, and a viola playing a harmony part. The viola parts are written in alto clef and fit on the viola in first position. The violin parts are written in treble clef. There are chords written above the melody, so they can be played with an accompanist, e.g. on guitar or piano.

The scores are provided without bowings or grace notes, as these are personal to each player and should be developed independently according to preference.

All the tunes are written in the key that they are usually played in (i.e. the traditional key that a violin would play them).

The following tunes are included:

South Wind
The Road to Lisdoonvarna
The Blackthorn Stick
The Rights of Man
