The tunes are in standard notation with mandolin tablature and chords. Also included: 40 audio recordings with guitar accompaniment recorded at a slower speed to facilitate learning.
In addition, some useful mandolin chord charts, commonly used mandolin scales charts, a page of warm-up technical exercises, and a full fingerboard and note chart for mandolin.
The traditional music is of Irish, Scottish, Cape Breton, and Old Time origins. The original content follows in those same footsteps with a more contemporary approach and a few Middle Eastern inspired tunes.
