They reflect the history of a people their legends religion love and work. British ballads are renouned for their verse melodic construction and for the enormous range of expression.1 The Lass of Richmond Hill is a poem by Leonard McNally a barrister about a lass who became his wife in 1787. The music is by James Hook (1746 1827).2 Sally in our Alley.

The music is traditionally Welsh and the ballad probably originated from North Wales where the native princes had ruled the longest.5 David of the White Rock (Dafydd y Garres Wen).

The drum rudiments are the language of drummers. They are to us what scales and chords are to the other instruments. Understanding the rudiments allows the drummer to communicate with other drummers and also have the ability tointerpret terminology and rhythms that are so often seen in music and music publications. This book is designed for drummers of all levels who would like knowledge of the snare drum rudiments but haven’t had the advantage ofstudying them formally. It is a quick simple approach that can be learned by any drummer who can do single strokes and double strokes [strokes using the stick rebound]. While this method is not meant to be a substitute for thetraditional way of learning the drum rudiments which I totally recommend one of the advantages of it is that it is a fast easy alternate method that will give an understanding of the how the rudiments are played and shouldsound. If nothing else this book will improve the drummer’s overall technique and playing. After studying the approach described it will be an easy transition to take the study of the rudiments further learning to play themin the traditional way and apply them to the drumset.

This is not just another book of Irish session tunes. It represents the relatively unknown repertoire of a single Irish traditional musician Packie Manus Byrne of Donegal. There has been considerable interest in the music ofDonegal over the past 10 years or so especially with the rise of groups such as Altan. Packie Manus Byrne is a familiar name to traditional-music lovers in Ireland and the UK where he enjoyed a successful career as a folkperformer for more than 20 years. Almost all these tunes were being played in Packie's home area between 1925 and 1935; the collection is thus something of a 'time capsule' with a unity of origin and style that sets it apart fromother collections. The 85 genuine old traditional tunes are being made public for the first time. This unique collection with all the background information and stories gives the reader a real sense of the community out of whichthe music came and the characters who played it. Suitable for fiddle tin whistle flute and other traditional instruments. The CD includes 33 of the tunes performed by Jean Duval Stephen Jones Johanne St. Laurent Lynda Dowker and Reinhard Görner on a variety of instruments.
