A Traditional Music Library of folk music, tune-books, songbooks and sheet music

folkloretanznoten Chris Peterson's Traditional Music Traditional Music This is a collection of (mostly) traditional music to look at, listen to, or download at your convenience. The emphasis is on traditional Celtic tunes, but there are some others you may find interesting, as well. Sound files are General MIDI, and tempos are friendly, but not slow. Sheet music is in the GIF format; a few tunes are two pages long, so be sure to get both if you want the tune. Tunes marked with a dot are basic repertoire tunes, generally considered useful for beginners to know, at least where I live (it varies somewhat by region). As far as I know, all of these tunes are in the public domain. Remember, this is folk music. Click on the title to hear the tune, and click on [sheet music] to see it.
