Breton Traditional Tunes
These tunes have been placed in progressive key order to create a satisfying "Breton suite" that facilitates lever and pedal changes. This order also facilitates playing a few tunes in succession as a "Breton medley." Breton tunes are often very modal in nature. Therefore, you may find some of the melodic contours or harmonies to be unfamiliar to your ear or unexpected.
