Werner Lämmerhirt was one of the first guitarists to popularize fingerstyle in Germany. He gained fame as a backing guitarist for Hannes Wader in the early 1970s and through his solo performances, and has since become a prominent figure in the folk scene. His extensive songbook exclusively features German-language songs and instrumental pieces from the last 15 years. Since most of the pieces are played in alternative tunings, Lämmerhirt consciously opted out of traditional notation and provides only tablatures. Audio files for all the tablatures, generated from the notation software Guitar Pro, can be downloaded for free.
