Description
A wonderful collection of traditional music for the Violin from Bosnia. Sevdah is the name for the traditional music of the towns and cities of Bosnia. As a musical language it is exotic, exciting and passionate, but also immediately accessible.
The Violin edition includes optional easy Violin part and Guitar chords, whilst the complete edition also includes both Keyboard and Violin accompaniments. Either format is highly flexible, which means the music can be played as solos, duets or trios as well as with larger ensembles.
Edwards Huws Jones has travelled extensively researching fiddle-playing traditions. In each book he explains the background of the particular musical style, giving his own suggestions for a lively performance!
