Thanks Irene. The music is just the melody.  There are no chords, and the musicians are expected to improvise.

OH wow....I looked this up on www.half.com and found that there are 4 or 5 of these books.  this music is just delightful and played by smiling Mark.  Does the music have parts that could be played by recorders and other instruments, or just the tune and chords?  Sounded GREAT on the dulcimer.  aloha, irene
