This book
teaches the techniques of
all the main branches of
country fiddle. It brings
structure, clarity, and
purpose to your learning,
and allows you to fluidly
play through a country
song, differentiating
between the intro, the
backing, the fills on
verse and chorus, the
fiddle solo, and the
outro, all in a style
appropriate to the type
of song. Old time, early
string band music,
western swing, bluegrass,
honky tonk, Cajun and
commercial country are
all covered here. You
will also learn about
specific players from the
history of country, so
that you can absorb and
master the techniques
which they pioneered. The
style of the book is
practical and down-to
earth, but also
entertaining, spiced with
anecdotes from the many
colourful characters we
meet along the way, be
they heroes or
villains!
