Review: “Musically, this is a fun collection, where most tunes are easily imagined to serve for folk dancing. The pre-dominant time signature is 2/4 with a clear up-down feel to them. Guitar chords are indicated, and addition of a guitar (or other chordal accompaniment) would greatly add to the character of these pieces.”- Victor Eljkhout, American Recorder, Winter 2023
