Celtic Songs and Slow Airs
for the Mountain Dulcimer
by Neal Hellman
In folk tradition, stories of love
lost, betrayal, jealousy, conflict, emigration, and the
supernatural are often immortalized in songs of many
traditions, demonstrating that singing has been a universal
vehicle for the human condition. The criteria for this
wonderful collection of prose and melodies is from Celtic
traditions that have been with us for hundreds of years.
These compositions have been arranged so that each will work
both as an air and as a song. All of the selections in the
book appear on the companion CD.
