English Fiddle Tunes by Pete Cooper

English Fiddle Tunes (99 Traditional Pieces for Violin) played solo by Pete Cooper, is published by Schott, ED 12748 (ISBN 1-902455-57-6), with an accompanying 54-track CD.
Extensive and informative (if not scholarly in some places) notes on the tunes will be found on Pete Cooper’s web page http://www.petecooper.com/eftnotes.htm#19

In order to squeeze the data contents of the 54 tracks on the CD into the 50 tracks allowed by the Recordings Database I have combined the data of tracks 48 - 54 of the CD into tracks 48 - 50 on the Database. The arrangement will be clear by reference to Pete Cooper’s web page linked above.
