Billy & St. Anne Tip the Canoe

Solo Violin Feature

Gackstatter cleverly combines three popular fiddle tunes into one toe-tapping feature for solo violin (fiddle) and string orchestra.

Program Notes

This arrangement of three famous fiddle tunes was originally done for pianist/violinist/singer Barbara Higbie. The tunes included are Billy in the Low Ground, St. Anne, and Tip the Canoe, each increasing in tempo to feature your outstanding fiddler and give the string orchestra some challenges as well in the foot-stomping showpiece.
