The book includes maps, photos, a bibliography, indexes, list of organizations, festivals and music camps, and an extensive discussion of piano accompaniment, including three full piano transcriptions. Appropriate for the beginner or accomplished player on any instrument, for the folklorist and musicologist, and for the listener or dancer who wants to learn more about the beautiful and varied traditional music of Quebec. The companion CD offers ensemble renditions of 32 tunes from the book, for a total of 60 minutes.Hart, Laurie is the author of 'Danse Ce Soir!
