Over The Hills and Far Away (book)

This is a very interesting collection of music for Lowland and Border Bagpipes but also for other melody instruments.

Over The Hills And Far Away is more than a collection of Border pipe tunes it is a selection of interesting tunes taken from the repertoires of bagpipes and fiddles in the Borders and many of the versions are not commonly played today.

Ideal for those looking to explore lesser known old versions of tunes and interesting to look at variations on the tunes too.
