English Folk Tunes contains 28 original arrangements of traditional and contemporary tunes including ballads, sea shanties, and carols. Most of the pieces are arranged for solo guitar, with several also offered as trios and with accompaniments. Experienced folk guitarist, and author of Scottish Folk Tunes for Guitar (ED 13359) Hugh Burns provides notes on all of the pieces, as well as playing tips, and technical advice. The volume includes recordings of all tunes in MP3 files for download performed by Hugh Burns. German and French translations of all texts are available as pdf downloads from the Schott Music website. Suitable for players of grades 3-8.

This is the seventh volume of an extensive collection of folk songs arranged for the classical guitar mostly in two-part counterpoint. The arrangements are of moderate difficulty and the aims of this publication are to familiarise, entertain and educate guitarists (and other musicians) with a melodic repertoire of lasting aesthetic value, under the light of contrapuntal treatment. The thirty five volumes of this collection can certainly be printed on paper if so desired and there are a few pages in each volume, either blank or with photographs of various musicians, which can be inserted at will in any place for the correct ordering of left and right hand pages so that page turns can be avoided. The principle of avoiding page turns has been maintained in all volumes, but this edition is also designed with mobile electronic devices in mind such as tablets etc, using the environment and facilities of a score reading application, towards a paperless world, at least in music. Therefore the size of the staves is bigger than usual for ease of reading on a small screen but not big enough to exceed the limit of a two-page view. Active internal links for navigating from thematic indexes to particular songs and back to indexes have been added, and also external internet links to sites that give further information for the 945 songs of this first collection for classical guitar.
