The Making of Pa's Fiddle - Promo

On Jan. 6, 2012, Music City all-stars brought Charles "Pa" Ingalls' old-time fiddle music and songs alive for a PBS special, "Pa's Fiddle: The Music of America."
Dr. Dale Cockrell, director of MTSU's renowned Center for Popular Music and a scholar of the early American tunes immortalized in Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Little House on the Prairie" book series, coordinated many aspects of the music special. MTSU students worked behind the scenes to film "The Making of Pa's Fiddle," a documentary on the inspiration, creation and execution of the special. The students' documentary accompanies the PBS special in the DVD package. Read more on the project at http://mtsunews.com/pas-fiddle-pbs-sp....
