American Fiddle Tune
This easy tune features all sections with clever rhythmic variations. Readily accessible and as easy to put together as any Bob Phillips fiddle tune arrangement, the traditional melody appears in all sections and may be taught aurally.
Though its origin is unknown, Spotted Pony appears to have roots in the Ozarks in Missouri, Arkansas, or Texas. Fiddlers in the early 20th century claim to have learned it from their grandparents' generation, so it most likely has been played since the late 19th century or earlier. (2:20) Correlates to Sound Innovations, Book 1, Level 4.
