Traditionally the role of the guitar in Celtic music has been confined to accompaniment of lead instruments or a vocalist. In this book Steve Baughman suggests ways to break free of this mold, allowing the guitarist to internalize techniques that make the expression of Celtic melodies a pleasant endeavor. Divided into two sections, the book covers melodic and percussive expressive techniques. The transcriptions herein are derived from Steve's album, A Drop of the Pure. All are written in standard notation and tablature.
