I compiled a book of over 100 easy fiddle tunes, perfect for novice players looking to expand their repertoire. It's a mix of traditional tunes and modern tunes. This was a bit of a passion project; I made it for my students (whom I mostly teach by ear) so that they would have a resource of all the novice tunes I teach in one place. With basic chords suggestions included, they can play with other folks on both fiddle and accompaniment. you can shoot me an email to order a copy. (I know it's super old-school but I like it that way and then I can include a personal note, and find out where in the world you are and what you're up to!) Book and shipping rates are at the bottom of the this page. Recordings of all the tunes in the book, slow and more up-tempo with accompaniment, are also available for purchase. If you buy a whole bunch of books I get really excited and like to throw in extra treats. Email me! funandeasyfiddletunes@gmail.com
Over 100 tunes...
141, to be precise! This is a compilation of simplified traditional tunes from around the globe, as well as some especially wonderful modern tunes written by really fantastic tunesmiths- a special thanks to them for allowing me include their tunes! There's something in here for every budding fiddler: Celtic, Old time American and Canadian, Scandinavian, Breton, Modern Contemporary and more.
Fun Colouring

Because no one wants
a book that won't stay open,
or print so small you can't read it,
especially when you're just learning to read, for crying outloud!

$50. There are over 300 of them) and are sent as a digital download link. They can be ordered directly from me by emailing me. ​ funandeasyfiddletunes@gmail.com
Shipping
1 Book- Shipping single book - $8
2 Books- The cheapest way to send up to 2 books is to send them each individually- that's silly Canada Post for ya! So the shipping will still be $8/book ($16 for two).
3-6 Books
A small flat rate box is the cheapest way to send 3-6 books to the same location.
Small Flat Rate box $21
6-10 Books
Medium Flat Rate box $26
10 books max
Flat rate boxes include postage and tracking and $100 insurance.
Teachers, I did the math for you...
If you buy 10 books @ $25 each, and send them via flat rate box ($26), it comes to $276 (which works out to $27.60/ per book). If your students were to order them directly from me it would cost them $38 with shipping….so it saves them $10.40 / book.

International Shipping
Ermmmmm email me and I'll figure it out. Honestly, with flights and tariffs where they're at right now, it may be cheaper to come visit Canmore and pick one up in person and then we can play some tunes together too!
