Violinist.com Contest of the Week
It's enough of a treat that the books come with a CD of Mark O'Connor playing all the tunes, but they also contain a fascinating set of histories of the works featured, which include styles such as American classical, American folk songs, Hymns, Mariachi, Latino, Canadian, Blues and Rock and Roll. Did you know, for example, that the "hoedown" is a combination of African string playing and Scotch/Irish reels, created by early African American and European Americans fiddlers? There is much more to learn. Mark also has included his own compositions, as well as many colorful illustrations and photographs. Mark has generously offered a set of Books 1 and 2 to three winners this week.
