Cohen, Mary - Bags of American Folk for cello

The latest in the popular Bags of series by reknowned string pedagogue Mary Cohen, Bags of American Folk is an introduction to the wonderful world of traditional music – favourite tunes passed down from one generation to the next, many from the early pioneer days. This collection, available for violin, viola and cello, has been carefully selected to include music of many different styles and moods, and it is great to play without needing any accompaniment, although player might like to form a band with friends.
