Really Great Reels (with CD)
By Amy and Christopher Matherly

Teachers - add some spice to your violin program by introducing some fiddle music.
Really Great Reels offers tunes for four different student skill levels; Beginner, Easy, Intermediate and Advanced. The tunes chosen are the ones that Amy’s students have enjoyed playing the most and are drawn from a variety of styles including Scottish, Irish, Old Time and Swedish. For each reel we have provided an up-tempo recording with accompaniment for inspiration, a slow recording of the tune for ‘by ear‘ learning, the sheet music, information about the tune and an accompaniment part to make it interesting to perform.

• Ready to use right off the shelf, your students will love learning to fiddle. And parents will enjoy the infusion of energy that fiddling will bring to practice time!
• Really Great Reels is also perfect for the individual who has always wanted to learn to play fiddle tunes.
