Tales from the Red Book of Tunes

Folklorist Jiri Hansom Felding is caught in a web of jigs and reels as she tries to untangle the secrets of the melodies set down in the ancient Red Book of Tunes. The complicated politics of a modern contra dance, the hopes of the elephant seller's daughter, and the dangerous myth of the Bramble Hive are all stones in a river of music and dance connecting the players across time and distance.
In this collection of interwoven tales, Tyler Johnson takes us across the world, back in time, and into the murky myths where the music was born.
