First, I hope to get back to updating the site soon. I have been quite busy with lessons, and will be back soon. I just finished a fantastic book about J.S. Bach, Pablo Casals, and the hunt for the lost Cello Suites. You can find it on Amazon, or just ask to borrow it. One of the most interesting points is how the Suites may have never been written origionally for the cello, but instead the "violoncello piccolo da spalla" which was a small 4-5 stringed instrument strapped around the neck.

After countless hours I have updated the 32 songs with dynamics, tempos, articulation, bowings, and lyrics for violin, viola cello, and bass (96 total variations!).
Thank you for your patience. I finished this much faster than I planned. Hopefully now I will get to a couple new tutorials!
All of the classical songs, and the first four fiddle tunes are done! I plan to finish the holiday music with lyrics in the next week... Maybe tomorrow. Everything is on my desktop and will be online tonight.
I got a wonderful email about Vincent in Arizona who found this site, has downloaded a bunch of music, and is learning some of the songs. I will get to fiddle tunes up very soon, but for the time being enjoy the music that is available, and keep on playing!
-Shawn Boucké Finished eight songs today. I have been adding some slurs, dynamics, bowings, and articulations to the music. Once the songs are all up I will be taking down the full books until I am able to compile the new editions together again. Everything that will be in the book will be available for single download on the site already.
In the future I plan to add a new song every couple weeks I will be taking requests The Downloads Page now has a new look! You can now download individual songs in the sheet music section. They will be uploaded throughout the next few weeks. many of them will have updat
Thank you Patty Elnicky for using my books in your lessons. I have sold all of my copies, and have printed eight new ones today. New editions will now have a circle of fifths included!
