Book Description
Each of the fiddle and folk tunes in this collection is presented in more than one key, permitting teachers to introduce the all important concept of tonality early in their students' musical accuracy in terms of finding half-steps differences as the keys of change. Almost all the tunes are in first position. All the tunes have been harmonized with chord symbols. If teacher, parent, or friend can accompany these tunes on the guitar, piano autoharp, or other chord-playing instrument, the benefit to the student will be readily apparent.

About the Author
The many facets of Jerry Silverman's musical background and experience have combined to make him one of this country's most prolific authors of music books. It was his research for his master's thesis in musicology (on blues guitar technique) at New York University that launched his musical literary career. Since the publication of his first book, Folk Blues, in 1958, he has had more than 100 titles published, including method books on all levels for guitar, banjo, fiddle, and recorder, as well as American and international songbooks with piano and guitar accompaniment. In addition, Mr. Silverman maintains an active teaching and performing schedule.
