Smp_stars50 Big Book of Irish Songs

"This book has a nice balance of lively and more thoughtful Irish Songs. It is a book that I will keep in my library to bring out and play through each year. It has a good mix of tunes to entertain an audience as well.. The bass is fairly easy in most of the pieces, but the treble has more challenges and keeps the arrangements interesting to play."

Smp_stars40 Review of The Big Book of Irish Songs

"Overall the book was very good and met my expectations. I use this music for my keyboard performances at various locations, and selected it specifically for St. Patrick's Day events. It will serve my purpose well."

Smp_stars50 It's exactly what I wanted

"I was pleased with the book I purchased,. The music was what I was looking for, traditional songs, or at least songs that were familiar to me, a second generation American (Canadian Parents)I am not a great musician, but I can read music and play piano and guitar minimally, and this book was easy and accurate.I bought it because I am teaching myself to play the piano accordian, and it works for me. Sincerely, Paula Bouffard"

Smp_stars30 Irish songs

"There was a fairly good mix of songs; although I was hoping for more "pub songs". There are several Irish=type pubs in the area where we spend 6 months of the year, and the audience really enjoys the songs supposedly sung in Ireland. I've never been there, so I can't attest to that. All in all, the book was good, and I've learned some new songs."

Smp_stars50 A treasure trove

"This book is exactly what I was looking for in the sense that it includes not only all the very familiar Irish songs, but also a large number of traditional songs that I hadn't heard before. By traditional, I mean songs that have no known composer. I don't sing, but instead I'm playing the songs on a viola, and it's also in just the right range for that."
