Appalachian
fiddle music, based on
the musical traditions of
the people who settled in
the mountainous regions
of the southeastern
United States, is
widely-known and played
throughout North America
and parts of Europe
because of its complex
rhythms, its catchy
melodies, and its
often-ancient-sounding
stylistic qualities. The
authors explore the lives
and music of 43 of the
classic Appalachian
fiddlers who were active
during the first half of
the 20th century. Some of
them were recorded
commercially in the
1920s, such as Gid
Tanner, Fiddlin? John
Carson, and Charlie
Bowman. Some were
recorded by folklorists
from the Library of
Congress, such as William
Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and
Marion Reece. Others were
recorded informally by
family members and
visitors, such as John
Salyer, Emma Lee
Dickerson, and Manco
Sneed. All of them played
throughout most of their
lives and influenced the
growth and stylistic
elements of fiddle music
in their regions. Each
fiddler has been given a
chapter with a biography,
several tune
transcriptions, and tune
histories. To show the
richness of the music,
the authors make a
special effort to show
the musical elements in
detail, but also
acknowledge that nothing
can take the place of
listening. Many of the
classic recordings used
in this book can be found
on the web, allowing you
to hear and read the
music together.

1. Sidestep
Reel - In 19th
Century America, the
Afro-Celtic fiddle style
was the centerpiece of
many a dance. Reels and
hornpipes were very
popular forms. Their
repetitive, even-metered
rhythms were easy and fun
to dance to, and their
infectious singable
melodies stayed in the
mind and on the tongue.
More adventurous fiddlers
were given to syncopating
on these forms by
accenting off beats and
by embellishing melodies
with oddmetered note
groupings. Syncopation is
a fundamental rhythmic
attitude of jazz and this
movement is a celebration
of that art. The melodic
language is a home-grown
concoction of commonality
between traditional reels
and hornpipes and the
Baroque, Ragtime and the
quartal concepts of
Modern Jazz. 2. As the
Wind Goes - the
wistful late night song
of a lullabye, a campfire
song, a ballad...a
spiritual. It is sung as
if on the wind, yearning
to experience once again
that which will only ever
again live as memory. 3.
Jones’ Jig -
the Irish Jig, the
African 6/8 bell pattern,
the shuffle rhythm of
jazz and the drum style
of Elvin Jones all play
around with the
relationship of 3 in the
time-space of 2. The
juxtaposition,
negotiation and
reconciliation of these
opposing rhythmic
perspectives create
interesting musical
relationships all over
the globe. 4.
Nicola’s
Strathspey - In the
traditional Strathspey,
improvised
embellishments,
syncopated dotted rhythms
and the use of space
between notes create
expectation, momentum and
surprise. These same
elements and their effect
on the listener are the
same in the blues. It
seems like a natural
marriage. 5. Bye Bye
Breakdown - This is
good ol’, Saturday
night barn dance, hoedown
fiddling. It revels in
the whining cry of open
double stops, in all
types of musical
onomatopoeia from train
sounds to animal calls to
country whistling, and in
the steady 2/4 rhythm
that is as basic as
walking. The harmonic
framework of several
popular fiddle and folk
tunes provide a practical
grid for the cutting of
challenging melodic and
rhythmic figures. It is
designed to tire fiddler
and dancers out. Then we
stomp our way home in
varying states of delight
and disrepair.Solo Violin
