Discussions on Appalachian music in the United States most often evoke images of instruments such as the fiddle and banjo, and a musical heritage identified primarily with Europe and European Americans, as originators or creators, when in reality, many Europeans were influenced or taught by African-American fiddlers. Not only is Appalachian fiddling a confluence of features that are both African- and European-derived, but black fiddlers have crea…
The (Mis)Representation of African American Music: The Role of the Fiddle
During the early twentieth century, research on African American music focused primarily on spirituals and jazz. Investigations on the secular music of blacks living in rural areas were nonexistent except for the work of folklorists researching blues. Researchers and record companies avoided black fiddling because many viewed it not only as a relic of the past, but also a tradition identified with whites. In the second half of the twentieth centu…

Gospel Music in the Los Angeles Black Community: A Historical Overview
This study examines the history of gospel music in the Los Angeles black community from 1930 to 1970. While there is scant mention of Los Angeles in some publications on gospel music (Boyer 1964; Heilbut 1975; Broughton 1985), most of the literature has been concerned with the development of the genre as a style without much reference to locale except to acknowledge that Chicago is considered the birthplace of gospel. The few investigators who ha…
