  • Annie Staninec plays the jolly old-time fiddle tune "Roscoe" with Luke Abbott on the viola. Recorded in 2010 at Luke's home in Santa Cruz, CA.
    Annie plays with a variety of bands around the Bay Area, often with the Kathy Kallick Band. anniestaninec.com
    Luke has a solo album with lots of old-time music like this (but with singing): lukeabbott.com/tmh

      Chris - exactly what I'm considering. Manolin tuned same as violin and not enough separation, but with a viola and a mandolin - this duo proves my point methinks.

    The moments of 3 part full triad harmony are like special treats! Made more special by not being uniform the whole time. I guess the classical music rules would say this is "wrong." So glad this kind of music knows better than to worry about that!

      It’s
      Mean Soybean, I played for 8 years, from 9 - 18, and I was decent. Not like her though. It’s taken me two years to get my fingers back to where I’m beginning to be happy with it again. I’ve been playing the guitar for over 30 years in the mean time. Let that sink in.

    This arrangement was all by ear. I'm sure you can find sheet music for "Roscoe" out there somewhere...

  • @LukeByEar
    @LukeByEar 12 лет назад +12

    It's a very characteristic syncopation of old-time music. Straight 4/4 meter, "square" tune (i.e., 32 bars), but very often the first beat of a phrase is played one beat early (the gut-bump). Yeah, I like it much better that way too! :-)

    This version is also in 4/4. It's the syncopation you're feeling, which definitely gives it a different flavor from the "straighter" performances you'll find elsewhere. Great version!

    I haven't touched my viola in years. It's just been sitting in my closet with a broken string gathering dust. Same for my brother's violin. I've been learning bagpipes for the last few years and forgot how nice a good fiddle could sound. I think I'm going to pick it up again. Thanks.

  • @pafcook
    @pafcook 12 лет назад +1

    I stand corrected. In my tradition, (classical music), syncopation can displace a beat, but cannot drop it. Whatever it is, though, I certainly do like it.
    And your joi de vivre comes through on every beat. This is a wonderful video.

    Tapping your foot to 7/8 is a special experience, too. I looked for other versions of this,
    and most of them are 4/4, which I now find really boring. This one has that gut-bumping
    pull at the end of the bar. Nice.
