Program Notes
Here is an exciting work that combines original music with a variety of traditional fiddle tunes from the Adirondack region of New York State. The fiddle was far and away the most popular folk instrument of the time, and these appealing melodies have been handed down through generations of amateur players. Includes: Chateaugay Reel; The Wild Mustard River and Ripsaw.
- Program Note from publisher
Commissioned by the Dolgeville (N.Y.) High School Band, Marck A. Case, Director, in memory of Alfred Dolge, whose educational vision was "to awaken in our students a love for all that is good and beautiful."
