Recenzii
This book brings together the collected wisdom of some of the finest fiddlers from England (John Dipper, Nancy Kerr), Ireland (Liz Doherty, Kevin Burke), Scotland (Jenna Reid, Aidan O'Rourke, Patsy Reid) and Wales (Sian Phillips). Most fiddle books would deal with only one of these traditions, so to bring them all together is an ambitious undertaking. Jane Griffiths' main achievement with this book is to provide a logical and cohesive framework to what might otherwise have been a jumble of different approaches to folk fiddle playing . . . The accompanying CD has each track played by the writer of that chapter, and the tracks are mostly played at a tempo considerably slower than normal performance speed . . . I would recommend this book as an excellent introduction to the rich and fascinating range of fiddle styles found in Great Britain.
The editor draws on world-renowned fiddlers like Kevin Burke and Liz Doherty in each section to workshop a tune. They discuss and play technical aspects like grace notes, âcutsâ, rolls, triplets, double stops, trills, pulsed bowing, and much more. I found this a terrific window into the sound world of each region; the approach avoids the common problem of one author attempting to be expert on more styles than is possible. Suitable for grades 3 â 7, the book's 27 tunes span hornpipes, jigs, reels, strathspeys, and Morris dance tunes.
