by Drew Beisswenger and Gordon McCann
This book, which includes 308 tune transcriptions, is organized around
individual fiddlers who typically combine Appalachian-style fiddling
with rags, pop standards, Midwest-style fiddling and sometimes a touch
of Western swing to create a style often identifiable as Ozarks. Thirty
Ozarks fiddlers and their lives are highlighted with biographical
sketches, photographs, and tune histories. Another 50 great Ozarks
fiddlers are presented in a similar manner but with less detail. The
book and accompanying online audio (with 37 tunes, many recorded in the
field) emphasize the older fiddling traditions connected to the square
dances and community events more than those connected to bluegrass music
and modern contest fiddling. Some of the tunes in the collection are
old standbys such as "Bile Them Cabbage" while others such as "Finley
Creek Blues" are unique to the region.
The book is the result
of years of work by two respected researchers. Gordon McCann won the
prestigious Missouri Arts Award in 2002 for his decades of work
documenting, studying, and accompanying Ozarks fiddle music. Drew
Beisswenger, a music librarian at Missouri State University with a Ph.D.
in ethnomusicology, has published three other works about fiddle music
and is known for his strong transcription and analysis skills.
