About American Fiddle Styles:

See how tunes changed and developed when they came to America! Trace a tune, Miss MacLeod’s Reel through six different regions, several keys and time signatures. Donna also breaks down the secrets of playing jigs with lift and lilt. Vi will help you learn to express your own voice through a fiddle tune, combining the sounds and patterns of tradition with your own original licks.

This lesson was recorded as part of Strings Without Boundaries, a multi-style string conference operating for over 27 seasons. In partnership with artistic director Julie Lyonn Lieberman, recordings from past Strings Without Boundaries conferences are now available on myTalentForge.
