Arranger: Paul Stewart Cranford
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Fiddle

Scottish settlers in Cape Breton have maintained traditions of instrumental dance music since the time of the highland clearances, a period which coincidentally coincided with the Golden Age of Scottish fiddle music. The settings of these tunes pay respect both to the composers' intentions as given in classic Scottish published collections, and to the Cape Breton traditions which have given this music new life and caused it to evolve.

The Cape Breton Scottish Collection is a compilation of Scottish music, 318 melodies, originally published between 1740-1935, as interpreted by 20th century Cape Breton musicians. It is a book of musical notation arranged for fiddlers and their accompanists. Volume 8 of of The Cape Breton Musical Heritage Series, the tunes are not verbatim copies from old books, instead local embellishments and accenting has been added - transcriptions of older Cape Breton players, and/or composites of transcriptions in conjunction with original sources. Arranged by Paul Stewart Cranford. Chords by Mario Colosimo.
