A Portland selection [Music CD]

view/request

This CD is a companion to the very excellent tune book The Portland collection. On it you will find recordings of 36 of the tunes from that collection. The tunes are played simply with a small ensemble, but are full of energy; these recordings will be appreciated by all lovers of contra dance music, but especially by those who wish to learn and play the tunes themselves. George Penk is on fiddle, Clyde Curley on mandolin, octave mandolin, and tenor banjo, and Susan Songer on piano.
