Patrick Steinbach has been writing the Irish Guitar workshop series for AKUSTIK GITARRE magazine since 2001. In this edition he has systematically summarized his contributions. The performance book contains good-sounding arrangements of Irish dance pieces, jigs and reels, ballads and compositions by Turlough O'Carolan, which can be played comfortably in the first two positions and are mostly notated in standard tuning. In addition, Steinbach gives detailed instructions on how to use simple tools to expand an Irish melody into a sonorous guitar arrangement. Notes on the decoration and the historical background complete the edition. Patrick Steinbach is a specialist in Irish music and has already published numerous sheet music editions on this subject. - German / English, standard notation and tablature, 96 pages, with CD content: What Shall We Do With A Drunken Sailor Dublinstreet Follow Me Up To Carlow The Little Banshee Johnny, I Hardly Knew You The Star Of The County Down · Drowsey Maggie · Dennis Murphy's Polka · Three Little Drummers · The Fair Haired Boy · Princess Royal · Fanny Power · Pretty Maggie Morrisey · Sally Gardens · The Clergy's Lamentation ua
