The old favourites, "Auld Lang Syne", "Mhairi's Wedding", "Green Grow the Rashes, O" are included in this book, as are the not so familiar, "The Broom of Cowdenknows", "The Twa Corbies", "Johnnie Cope" and more. "The Songs of Scotland" is a collection of 100 classic and traditional songs from Scotland. Each entry includes details of its origins and alternative versions. All piano accompaniments have been kept deliberately simple and uncluttered so as not to detract form the purity of the melodies, and to make it appropriate for musicians of all abilities.
