Our weekly Faculty Artist Series presents our Faculty Scholars in lectures on various topics. This event is free and open to the public.LIVESTREAM LINKTitle:Fiddle lessons: community and musical valueAbstract:In this presentation, I share some experiences from my year of learning fiddle music across a range of related traditions. By drawing from the sociological and political framework of small groups as sites of cultural meaning, I reflect on how different fiddle traditions like old time, bluegrass, Texas contest style, and Western swing build and reinforce various types of musical and interpersonal value. Communities—just like individuals—are not all the same: they are filled with discourses of authenticity, tradition, and innovation. I will perform examples to emphasize some of these distinctions while demonstrating the importance of supporting spaces that encourage amateurs who find joy in making music with others.
