Irish Traditional Session Music, Book 1

Irish Traditional Session Music, Book 2

From Zero to Session Hero!

This bundle was perfect. Book 1 got me comfortable with the basics and common tunes, and Book 2 gave me the confidence and repertoire to tackle faster, more complex sessions. Having both together made the progression seamless. The clear layout is brilliant.

All the Session Tunes I Need

Fantastic value getting both session books together. I play the fiddle and this covers pretty much everything needed for the local sessions. The CDs are invaluable for getting the rhythm right. Highly recommend this set for any serious learner.
