Whilst updating, improving and expanding on the book, the audio of Guitar Pro 6 was used for practical reasons. I also chose this program because of its more attractive sound-bank.

A diverse number of sets were chosen to allow instrumentalists to start performing the sets of tunes straight away. The suggested sets are only meant as examples and should be changed if preferred. For box players, the book provides chords placed beneath the music notation but there are also chord arrangements included which may make it easier on the eyes for guitar, bouzouki or cittern players.
Chord Arrangements: Chord Arrangements were meticulously vetted for accuracy.
