Bodhrán Basics by Steáfán Hannigan
This is it! Music maestro, Steáfán Hannigan's one and only bodhrán book will tell you anything and everything worth knowing about the intricacies of traditional bodhrán-playing.
Learn all about the many and varied techniques through the expert and detailed instructions.
In this tutor Steáfán takes nothing for granted - the beginner will be slowly and carefully guided with numerous examples and exercises. Included are sections on the various types of traditional dance music with suggested ways of accompaniment as well as a care-and-maintenance section, a music-help section, a discography and a guide to bodhrán history and manufacture.
Steáfán, a native of Belfast, is an eminent professional musician and teacher, as well as a maker of instruments. He is well-known along the folk circuit in Ireland, Britain and the Continent for playing bodhrán, flute, whistle, bouzouki and uilleann pipes and has appeared on no less than 40 albums as a session musician!

Bodhran is excellent. Very high quality workmanship. Wonderful tone. Only disappointing thing was the gig bag. Has no padding, so not much protection. Will have to purchase a higher quality bag locally.

I was very pleased with the speed of service and the instrument is beautifully crafted and sounds amazing. A couple of additional items were missed with my order, but again this was quickly rectified. I would definitely recommend McNeela music to anyone looking to purchase high quality, traditional Irish instruments.

This book is easy to understand and has great content for beginners. I liked that the accompanying CD has the text of the book read aloud as well as examples of the Bodhran playing. So you get the book and an audio book with examples. I would highly recommend this book for beginners.
