Klondike Fiddles

Imagining the Alaska Klondike gold rush calls up visions of fortune seekers, turn-of-the-century dance halls, and adventure! Klondike Fiddles captures those moods in a medley of two authentic fiddle tunes from that by-gone era by Andrew H. Dabczynski. These delightful melodies"—March of the Gold Miners" and "Crooked Stovepipe" fall under the fingers of intermediate string students, with interesting parts for all players, "body percussion" sounds, and challenging optional improvisation opportunities. Here's a piece that complements any concert program and will have the players and audience tapping their toes! (3:50)
