The Fiddling Around books are a wonderful and varied collection of traditional folksongs and fiddle tunes from the British Isles and North America, wide-ranging in material and treatment. Some tunes are evergreens (e.g Scarborough Fair, Skye Boat song), some curious combinations (e.g The Fair-haired Boy with the Tenpenny Bit, Ranting in the Rye), and others toe-tapping discoveries (e.g. Kemp's Jig, The East Neuk O'Fife). Drawing on fiddle styles such as jig, reel, hornpipe, strathspey, old-time, bluegrass, syncopated shuffle and American waltz, the arranger Bill Thorp has made a fascinating set of truly democratic and hugely fun duets. For colleges and professionals.
