Family Tradition BIG PRINT Songbook: The Big Print 'People Music' Song Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482670547)

This book offers 371 songs in BIG PRINT, easy to read, 20 point typeface. Here you'll have a lifetime supply of commonly-played, traditional 'people music'. Each song is annotated with key-independent chord changes (a.k.a. Nashville number system), 'jammability', and tonal information useful for playing by ear and for singing lead and harmony. The 'people music' being played today, otherwise known as bluegrass or mountain music, evolved out of a unique blend of many styles of music, coalescing in 19th-century Appalachia. Vigorous Anglo-American mountain music, old English ballads, Afro-American gospel music, and many other traditions all contributed to the growth of the music. Like its cousins, Native American and African music, it is rooted in a driving, primal rhythm, and it lives and breathes in its SOCIAL experience For more information, go to ToneWay.com
