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).
