Reviews...
Greenblatt has provided us a quick but thorough resource for traditional fiddle music: Irish-sourced tunes that work well together as medleys in various forms, including jigs, polkas, quadrilles, and reels. Each medley contains two or three short songs which Greenblatt feels connect well once the ear pays attention. A beautiful connection is the “Farewell Medley,” which contains “Farewell to Highland” and “Farewell to Old Ireland”. For anyone wanting to have a resource for period music, this should be in that library.
