Fooch! - Favourite Session and Dance Tunes (Volume 1)

A collection of 68 of Neil Davey's favourite Cornish tunes, including two CDs with the tunes on.

Each tune is played once slowly and then a few times more quickly with embellishments and improvisation so it's not only essential for the tune-learner but very pleasant to listen to as well. Neil's advice to users of the book is based on the idea that "if you love the music you play, it shows and others will enjoy it too. To get to love your music I think you need to make it your own, by finding your own way of playing it which brings it alive for you on your particular instrument. This results from experimenting with the tunes, improvising with the raw materials until their secrets are revealed to you. I call this process unlocking a tune."
