(
For this brand new collection of fiddle tunes from the golden age of sail Edward Huws Jones has researched and compiled an eclectic selection of sea shanties, 'forebitters', jigs, reels, hornpipes, songs and other melodies which were traditionally played as accompaniment to hard labour or times of recreation for sailors at sea.
The Violin edition includes optional easy violin part and guitar chords, whilst the complete edition includes both keyboard and violin accompaniments. Both editions are packaged with a CD containing high quality performance and accompaniment tracks.
This volulme is on the ABRSM Bowed Strings Syllabus 2019-2023 and is one of the alternative pieces on the syllabus.
