Adam Granger self-published the first edition of Grangerâ??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar in 1979. A second edition was published in 1994. Now Mel Bay Publications presents the third edition of the book.
This 236-page book is the most extensive and best-documented collection of fiddle tunes for the flatpicking guitar player in existence, and includes reels, hoedowns, hornpipes, rags, breakdowns, jigs and slip-jigs, presented in Southern, Northern, Irish, Canadian, Texas and Old-time styles.
There are 508 fiddle tunes referenced under 2500 titles and alternate titles. The titles are fully indexed, making the book doubly valuable as a reference book and a source book.
In this new edition, all tunes are typeset, instead of being handwritten as they were in the previous editions, making the tabs easier to read.
The tunes in Grangerâ??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar are presented in Easytab, a streamlined tablature notation system designed by Adam specifically for fiddle tunes.
The book comes with a link which gives access to mp3 recordings by Adam of all 508 tunes, each played once at a moderate tempo, with rhythm on one channel and lead on the other.
Also included in Grangerâ??s Fiddle Tunes for Guitar are instructions for reading Easytab, descriptions of tune types presented in the book, and primers on traditional flatpicking and rhythm guitar. Additionally, there are sections on timing, ornamentation, technique, and fingering, as well as information on tune sources and a history of the collection.
Mel Bay also offers The Granger Collection, by Bill Nicholson, the same 508 tunes in standard music notation.

Whoever pursues piano playing as a hobby mostly focusses on two things: playing from music, with as wide a range of works from classical, pop and jazz music as possible, and playing without the book, i.e. the ability to accompany melodies with chords, play songs by ear and improvise freely. In this volume, both topics are dealt with thoroughly and systematically. Whereas most piano methods prefer either classical or popular music, both kinds of music are well-balanced herein.Clearly structured chapters cover a variety of interesting topics: the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras, popular piano styles (e.g. ragtime, boogie, rock 'n' roll, pop ballad), the blues and the genres of opera, operetta and ballet.

Born on the occasion of the Chopin's Chopin Competition in 1949, on the occasion of Chopin's 100th anniversary, Laks' ballad captures the spirit of Chopin's melodious, harmonious and rhythmic thinking, without the impression of plagiarism. The form of the ballad comes to the idea of ??exploring the entire range between the most tender lyricism and eruptive drama that is so characteristic of Chopin's piano style. The technically sophisticated 8-minute piece is ideally suited for recitals reflecting the importance of Chopin's music as a symbol of the Polish nation in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Wind parts use only five pitches. Only percussion parts use eighth notes. Two sound effects are required. First, the hatching eggs are portrayed by the ratchet beginning at m. 2, and second, the snapping dinosaurs jaws, which are first heard at m. 14, are represented by an accented note augmented by a slapstick. Directors are encouraged to use more elaborate sound effects if they are inclined to do so. The story described by the music is as follows:• Dinosaur eggs begin to hatch (the ratchet, mm. 1-8).• The parent dinosaurs guard the nest (Low Brass and Woodwinds mm. 9-12).• The hatchlings begin walking (m. 13).• The hatchlings snap their jaws as they learn to eat (m. 14, Xylophone and Slapstick).• Thunder (Timpani, m. 29).• The parent dinosaurs seek shelter for all (m. 33, Low Brass and Woodwinds).• The hatchlings follow while they continue snapping their jaws (m. 41).• More thunder (mm. 53-54).• All the dinosaurs roar loudly at the clouds (m. 55) as the thunder becomes louder.
