Presented in this book are 108 tunes attributed to, or written in the style of, the Irish harper and composer Turlough O’Carolan. They are presented in keys which reflect present day Irish music sessions; mainly G, D, A, Am, Em, and Bm; plus a few in the less popular keys of F, C, Dm and Gm. The tunes are arranged in lines of 4 or 8 bars to make reading as easy as possible. Chord suggestions have been added as a guide for accompanists.

The recording is presented as an essential companion to the book because of the difficulty in trying to convey all of the elements of any (rhythm) guitar style solely in written form. I felt that the recording would transmit such elements as the exact accenting of some rhythms in a more comprehensible way than any amount of dots, lines and numbers would do. Also, hearing the accompaniment in place with some excellent melody players will give you a clear picture of what it is supposed to sound like.
