Event
Piedmont Blues Concert
National Heritage Award Fellow John Dee Holeman; Piedmont expert Michael Roach; and Lightnin Wells - the man who seemingly does it all; will play Blues in the Piedmont style. Plectrum is not spoken here. The right thumb lays down the bass line, and fingers independently play the melody, chords, fills, and other treble voices - much he way ragtime pianists divided their right and left hands into different functions. The approach worked for Delta and country-ragtime blues as well, but reached its apex in the Piedmont style.
