Previous books on Appalachian fiddling have dealt admirably with breakdown fiddling, but have failed to acknowledge the full spectrum of musical styles embraced by mountain fiddlers. While it is true that any old-time concert or recording will feature and abundant selection of fast reels, it is also likely to offer a sampling of the music injected with a rural flavor that was commercially popular in America during the hundred years from 1830-1930.
The Magic of Appalachian Fiddling attempts to capture, in a concise manner, some of the diverse sounds that help to make mountain fiddling the exciting art that it is today.
