The songs in Thirteen for Halloween are just a joy, and well worth the price. They will appeal to both children and adults, alike. The arrangements are bright, fun, and easy to play. My kids love these songs and always stop to listen, and better yet join in, when I sit down to play them.
Many are traditional texts set to original melodies. "MacTavish is Dead" is a fun example of how Taylor has combined a folk melody (the Irish Washer Woman) with a traditional poem to create a song that you can’t help but want to sing along with. The "Three Quodlibets for a Gaggle of Ghouls" is full of fun sonic references to classic monsters, and is just plain fun to sing with your family and friends.
The best recommendation I can give for this collection is this. Not a week goes by since getting this collection that my five year old doesn't come to me as say, "Dad, will you sing the song about the mean old witch for me?"
Cost of the book? $11.00. My kids wanting to sing with me? Priceless.
