Field Guide to the Irish Music Session, the only book devoted entirely to the etiquette and dynamics of the traditional Irish music seisiún, was originally published in 1999 by Roberts Rinehart Publishers. Frogchart Press was delighted to reissue it in 2009.

 

With a winning combination of humor and seriousness, Field Guide addresses virtually every session-related issue and situation, offering information and insights of value to both listeners and prospective participants.

Fans of the original edition will be pleased to know that, apart from an added preface and a new binding (now in paperback, to fit nicely into an instrument case), the book has not been altered in any way. Imagine—something about Irish music that hasn’t changed since 1999!
