十七曲と三つの国。カナダ大西洋岸のケルティック・フィドル、アパラチアのポーチ、ミシシッピ・デルタ、ニューオーリンズのブラス、メキシコのソン。
伝統
- Cape Breton fiddling in Nova Scotia preserves Scottish Gaelic repertoire and bowing that shifted or faded in Scotland itself.
- Quebec's reels are played with the feet: the seated player taps a rhythm — podorythmie — while bowing, and the crooked tunes add or drop beats where the dance asks.
- Appalachian string band music carries Scots-Irish tunes reshaped by the banjo, an instrument of West African descent.
- The Mississippi Delta gave the blues its twelve-bar frame and its bent, between-the-notes pitch.
- New Orleans brass bands come from the city's parade and funeral tradition, where the second line follows the band.
- Mexican son is regional rather than national: son jarocho on the Veracruz coast, son huasteco in the northeast, mariachi's son jalisciense in the west.
