This book of duets contains a further twenty one tunes from around the British Isles of core repertoire which the editor, Matt Seattle, feels should have a place in the repertoire of all musicians who reside in these Islands, plus some interesting older tunes as well as more recent music composed in traditional idioms. The balance in this book is weighted a little more in favour of the slower tunes.
