Description
Mike Seeger performs, talks about, and plays recordings that trace the sounds that evolved in the southern US, from the 17th century - unaccompanied voice, fiddle, quills, Jew's harp, and percussion - to the early 20th century and the harmonic sounds of the fretted banjo, guitar, and autoharp.Additional Descriptive Notes: For additional information about Mike Seeger please see: http://mikeseeger.info
