Summary of this book
This collection opens the door to a wide-ranging panorama of traditional music for violin, designed to recreate the energy of a "ceilidh", the spirit of folk dances, the atmosphere of a jazz club or even the character of café-concerts, with colours evocative of Sarajevo. The melodies span a variety of styles: some will seem immediately familiar, while others will surprise you with their exoticism, but all proudly assert their authenticity. The arrangements, created "without compromise", focus on the character of the style, the attack, the ornamentation and the distinctive groove of traditional music, for expressive and generous playing.Each title in the series is available in two versions: the Violin Edition, which may include a simplified violin part (useful for consolidating phrasing or making reading easier) as well as guitar chords, and the Complete Edition, enhanced with accompaniment parts for keyboard and violin. This flexibility makes the book particularly appealing to violinists who alternate between individual practice, playing in a duo (violin and guitar, violin and keyboard), and performing in a small ensemble. Alongside its purely musical content, the book also offers educational material: drawing on his travels and research into traditional styles, Edward Huws Jones presents the history of a specific style in each volume and offers practical guidance for achieving a livelier, more dance-oriented and more communicative performance.
