Monroe Instrumentals - 25 Bill Monroe Favorites

Bill Monroe is commonly lauded as "the father of bluegrass music;" his tunes are standard repertoire and should be studied by any serious student of bluegrass. The transcriptions in this collection are taken from instrumentals recorded over a span of 40 years, the 1940s to the early 1980s. It functions as a "fake book" to study Monroe's style. The melodies were played by mandolin, fiddle, twin fiddles, or triple fiddles, and are grouped accordingly. The mandolin break is included with most of the fiddle parts. With discography.
