I've always wanted to play Irish music, and this method book makes it totally achievable! It's so easy to follow for an adult learner, starting right from the basics. The online audio really helps to hear how the examples should sound, making learning the traditional Irish songs and accompaniment styles very enjoyable. Highly recommend for a weekend player!
