I believe that one of the most powerful forces in our human world is the power of music. A medium to the spirit, it can transport one's mind to wherever and beyond, it can soothe, console and inspire, without it the world would be a dismal place.
I hope you, the reader, will enjoy this book in which I have endeavoured to give a brief account on the succesful development of traditional music from its near extinction era, to the very healthy state it is in today.
