Traditional Southern old-time fiddling from the world-renowned Round
Peak area of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina, focusing on
the style and repertoire of master fiddler Tommy Jarrell (1901-1985).
Author Brad Leftwich, himself an acclaimed fiddler who learned the
music in person from Jarrell, presents detailed, accurate
transcriptions of 83 tunes (the bulk of Jarrell's repertoire) both in
standard music notation and fiddle tablature, along with interesting
anecdotal information relating to each tune. All of the tunes are
included on the accompanying CD as transcribed, played solo at a
moderate tempo to facilitate learning. Helpful stylistic tips and
important background information on the area and the music, along with
biographical information on Jarrell and many of the musicians from
whom he learned, illustrated with many fascinating old photographs.
