Berea College Christmas Dance School - Dances From Appalachia
Review by Mohammed Essaid MEZERREG
Berea College Christmas Dance School's album Dances From Appalachia is a beautiful representation of the traditional folk dances of the region. The album features a variety of lively and soulful tunes that perfectly capture the essence of Appalachian dance.
The musicians on the album are incredibly talented and skillfully play a range of instruments, including the fiddle, banjo, and guitar. The tracks are expertly arranged and showcase the unique style and rhythm of the Appalachian dance tradition.
Each song on the album tells a story and invokes a sense of nostalgia for the rich cultural heritage of the region. The music is both uplifting and reflective, with each track showcasing a different aspect of the Appalachian dance tradition.
