North American Fiddle Music - A Research and Information Guide

Zusatztext "Beisswenger's work will be a welcome starting point for those beginning a research project on traditional music in North America or for more experienced researchers looking into a new area or genre." - James Ruchala! Notes: Quarterly Journal of the Music Library Association Informationen zum Autor Drew Beisswenger is Head of Music and Media Collections at Missouri State University. Klappentext North American Fiddle Music: A Research and Information Guide is the first large-scale annotated bibliography and research guide on the fiddle traditions of the United States and Canada. These countries, both of which have large immigrant populations as well as Native populations, have maintained fiddle traditions that, while sometimes faithful to old-world or Native styles, often feature blended elements from various traditions. Therefore, researchers of the fiddle traditions in these two countries can not only explore elements of fiddling practices drawn from various regions of the world, but also look at how different fiddle traditions can interact and change. In addition to including short essays and listings of resources about the full range of fiddle traditions in those two countries, it also discusses selected resources about fiddle traditions in other countries that have influenced the traditions in the United States and Canada. Zusammenfassung North American Fiddle Music: A Research and Information Guide is an annotated bibliography and research guide on the fiddle traditions of the United States and Canada.
