100 Evergreen Irish Session Tunes Book

by Dave Mallinson

All the tunes in this book are again firm session favorites, particularly the reels. It follows on from Essential and Enduring by providing another 100 of the most popular Irish session tunes.

The book echos the format of a typical Irish session; lots of reels, some jigs, and a few hornpipes.

100 tunes ( 65 reels, 25 jigs, 10 hornpipes) with chords, classified and alphabetical (with alternative titles) indexes.

Important note from Mally

The tune settings in this book are all 'session friendly', i.e. you can learn them exactly as written and know that you will have a perfectly acceptable version.

However, I consider it unwise to learn a tune from only one source and I would suggest strongly that, when learning a new tune, you pay heed to settings in other books, on recordings and what you hear down the pub.

It is important to note that the settings in this book are greatly influenced by the instrument I play, the D/G melodeon.

I've made a conscious effort to allow this to happen in order to give the book its own unique character
