Traditional Scottish Music Traditional Scottish Music
One of the main reasons it has taken me so long to get this book done is that I have no fixed arrangements in my head. In traditional music, the written music is only a guide, and is open to individual interpretation. Generally when I play live, I vary the arrangement. I have the basic tune in my head and I add the accompaniment and ornamentation as I go along. I am always looking for new inspiration for performance, to keep the music fresh and interesting. Performances with other musicians, of course, require a more fixed approach. I listen to Gaelic singing, piping and fiddling, for inspiration in ornamentation. Also it is useful to listen to some of the current guitarists with Celtic bands to pick up ideas for chord progressions and rhythms.
