In 2002 when this resource was first set up on www.clarsach.net, tiny video clips demonstrated by Bill Taylor and filmed by Barnaby Brown for another project were borrowed to illustrate some but not all of the finger movements. Now (2008) that all but two of the finger movements have new larger video clips provided by Simon Chadwick, Bill's originals have been archived here so that interested persons can still view them.
Note that Bill is playing all of the figures in reverse, with his right hand (all the ones he demonstrates are left hand figures).
