Subject: RE: Overlapping (folk) worlds
I recently got myself a CD of Native American fiddle music that is WAY INTERESTING. Most of it is South American. I wouldn't say it's pleasant (sounds like homemade fiddles to me) but there are some tunes I'd like to learn for myself both on fiddle and on dulcimer. The last 1/3 is Canadian and borrowed heavily from UK traditions, but not played in quite the same style.

The CD is "Wood That Sings" from Smithsonian Folkways.
