专辑简介
The journals of the Lewis and Clark expedition of 1804-1806 frequently mention the fiddling of Peter Cruzatte and George Gibson, members of the Corps. The violins were often played for dancing at the end of a long day on the trail, and to entertain the Indians the Expedition encountered along the way. The tunes played were not listed in the journals, so we can only make an educated guess as to what they were. Research by champion Pacific Northwest fiddler and historian Vivian Williams, and by noted Missouri fiddler and historian Dr. Howard Marshall, uncovered many popular tunes of the era. On this CD these tunes are masterfully performed in old-time style on violins, fretless and fretted banjo, mandolin, guitar and percussion. Experience the fiddle dance music from America's fromative years!
