Moebius Music
Originally published in 1995, this title has long been out of print. Jon has now revised and re-published the book under his own name. The original contained twenty-one pieces by Jon in three-part harmony for two English border pipes in G and one in low C; here is added a further seven pieces not previously published.
Experience for yourself in performance the great tunes and rich harmonies.
The book includes:
● Prefaces to the first and second editions, giving some background material on the inspiration behind the music
● Some technical notes about the music
● Illustrations by Julian Watson, photos, explanatory text, commentary, and other delights
