Book and CD set by Jessica Walsh; 44 tunes for the Celtic flautist, from Irish, Scottish, Manx, Welsh, and other sources, chosen because they work extremely well on flute alone. Includes variations for the advanced player. Chord symbols are carefully chosen to enhance the flute, but the tunes work well unaccompanied too. All pieces are playable on wooden Irish flutes or modern Boehm flutes. Tunes range from common melodies such as The Foggy Dew and Johnny Cope to less known but wonderful pieces as Suo Gan, Fear a' Bhata, Shule Agra, etc.
