Irish Jigs & Airs

Taught by Duck Baker

The music of Ireland offers beautiful and haunting melodies as well as intriguing dance rhythms and exciting tunes. In the last years fingerstyle guitarists have turned their attention and arranging skills to Celtic music. Duck Baker is in the vanguard of this movement. He can be heard on the GUITAR ARTISTRY albums The Music Of Ireland and Irish Reels, Jigs, Hornpipes And Airs.

Duck's close association with John Renbourn, Davey Graham and Dave Evans has helped greatly in his exploration of arranging Celtic melodies. This series of lessons presents beautiful and challenging arrangements of airs and jigs. For intermediate to advanced students.
