Rezensionen

'The author...a Scotsman, creatively gifted musician...has produced a remarkably well balanced and stimulating exposition...' Journal of the International Folk Music Council.

'A vast mass of material... has been marshalled in good order and clearly expounded. The excellence of the book consists not only in the richness of its contents, but in the number and relevance of the tunes quoted.' Frank Howes, Musical Times
