Completely revised from material originally published in Massif Central Volumes 1 and 2, the collection combines traditional repertoire with original compositions by Trevor Upham and Chris Shaw written in the central French style.\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cp\u003eThe book contains the characteristic mixture of tunes encountered at a French Bal Folk, including mazurkas, valses, scottisches, two-time and three-time bourr es, and polkas. Most of the traditional repertoire comes from the central French regions of Berry, Bourbonnais and Auvergne, areas with particularly strong traditions of hurdy-gurdy and bagpipe music.\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cp\u003eAlongside these established dance forms are examples of some less commonly encountered repertoire, including a five-time waltz from Alsace. The emphasis throughout is practical rather than academic, providing musicians with a varied and enjoyable source of tunes for playing French traditional music and accompanying dancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cp\u003eThe music is particularly suitable for melodeon, fiddle and accordion, while many of the tunes also fall within the range of the hurdy-gurdy and bagpipes. A number of tunes are presented in C, reflecting the widespread use in France of C\/G melodeons alongside Auvergne-tuned hurdy-gurdies and bagpipes in C. Players using the G\/D melodeon more commonly encountered in England can readily transpose these tunes into G where appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cp\u003eThe collection also includes original compositions by Trevor Upham and Chris Shaw, two England-based musicians with considerable experience of French traditional music. Trevor lived in France for many years and was closely involved with its folk dance scene, giving the newly composed material a strong connection with the musical tradition that inspired it.\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\t  \u003cul\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eCollection of French traditional dance tunes\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eCompletely revised from Massif Central Volumes 1 and 2\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eErrors from the earlier editions corrected\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eFocuses particularly on music from central France\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eIncludes repertoire from Berry, Bourbonnais and Auvergne\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eFeatures mazurkas, valses, scottisches and polkas\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eIncludes both two-time and three-time bourr es\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eAdditional examples of less commonly encountered French dance forms\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eIncludes original compositions by Trevor Upham and Chris Shaw\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eSuitable for melodeon, fiddle and accordion\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eMany tunes suitable for hurdy-gurdy and bagpipes\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eUseful repertoire for playing at a French Bal Folk\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eIncludes tunes in C suited to traditional French instrument combinations\u003c\/li\u003e\t    \u003cli\u003eIncludes a FREE Hamcor Publishing Key Signature Bookmark\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWith its mixture of traditional central French repertoire and newer compositions written in the same spirit, Bal Folk provides a practical and varied source of music for anyone who enjoys playing French traditional tunes or providing music for French folk dancing. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents include:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScottishes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;\"\u003e  \u003ctbody\u003e    \u003ctr\u003e      \u003ctd style=\"width:33%;
