Appalachian fiddle music, based on the musical traditions of the people who settled in the mountainous regions of the southeastern United States, is widely-known and played throughout North America and parts of Europe because of its complex rhythms, its catchy melodies, and its often-ancient-sounding stylistic qualities. The authors explore the lives and music of 43 of the classic Appalachian fiddlers who were active during the first half of the 20th century. Some of them were recorded commercially in the 1920s, such as Gid Tanner, Fiddlin? John Carson, and Charlie Bowman. Some were recorded by folklorists from the Library of Congress, such as William Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and Marion Reece. Others were recorded informally by family members and visitors, such as John Salyer, Emma Lee Dickerson, and Manco Sneed. All of them played throughout most of their lives and influenced the growth and stylistic elements of fiddle music in their regions. Each fiddler has been given a chapter with a biography, several tune transcriptions, and tune histories. To show the richness of the music, the authors make a special effort to show the musical elements in detail, but also acknowledge that nothing can take the place of listening. Many of the classic recordings used in this book can be found on the web, allowing you to hear and read the music together.

Changing Voices Christmas is an exciting collection of Christmas carols and popular songs specifically arranged for changing or 'cambiata' male voices. These arrangements are intended to be sung by boys aged approximately 11 years and upwards; precisely the time when many boys give up singing as their changing voices cease to fit comfortably within traditional vocal ranges. Progressive in difficulty and ranging from classic carols to more contemporary Christmas hits, the pieces in this collection are suitable for performance in both sacred and secular settings. Together, they provide a dynamic and festive selection of music for boys' choral groups of all abilities. As well as the printed score, this book is supported by SoundWise: you get an eBook, a digital edition of your music to read on any device, and online audio featuring: full demonstration recordings of each piece, plus accompaniment-only, solo-only and rehearsal backing tracks.
