TO ENGLAND AND THE CELTIC LANDS has been an adventure in music, culture and spirituality. Roger Davidson assembled this book for two reasons:

  • because he is enthralled by the traditions of the British Isles and the Celtic lands, the music and dances of which have stood the test of time
  • because he believes that the joy and inspiration from dances of yore can continue to uplift us all — regardless of our ages, faiths or cultures of origin

The entire set (5 volumes) includes over nine hundred tunes written over the past four decades, representing the cultures of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight and Brittany, through many eras of music and dance.

The majority of the tunes in this book, are centered around the European dance traditions of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. But many also connect back to earlier pagan and other cultural histories.

Volume 3 contains ECD Tunes in 3/2 (Hornpipes) in traditional styles as well as 15 in contemporary and international styles.

There are 135 tunes in this volume.
