The Appalachians represented one of America's first frontiers, and frontier music became one of the first truly American forms of musical expression. Based on traditional fiddle tunes, Appalachian Journey combines four folk songs, providing players and the audience with a real toe-tapping treat! The melodies included are: "After the Battle of Aughrim" and "Lord Mayo I," both Irish in origin, and "Bonaparte Crossing the Rocky Mountains" along with "Whiskey Before Breakfast," adapted from the old-time fiddling tradition.
