James Scott Skinner wrote some 600 tunes - this book contains many of the tunes he composed still popular in the Scottish repertoire.

One of the best known and all time greats of Scottish fiddle music, as both performer and composer, Scott Skinner (1843-1927) wrote many books of fiddle music.

This collection features a fine selection of dance tunes, hornpipes, jigs, marches, strathspeys and reels - an excellent resource!

J Scott Skinner was born in the parish of Banchory, Aberdeenshire in 1843. He came from a musical family (his father William Skinner was a dance teacher).

In 1861 James returned to Aberdeen from his musical training in Manchester and became a champion dancer and fiddle accompanist to other champion dancers. By the 1870s he was touring widely in the USA and Canada and playing his own compositions to great acclaim.

He was one of the very first Scottish artists to be recorded (in Glasgow in 1899) and by 1905 he had embarked on a recording career. During this time he continued to perform at concerts throughout Scotland and became a household name, often walking from place to place to play his fiddle.
