hillaryklug.com
Hillary Klug performs the traditional fiddle tune, "Bonaparte's March," from her debut album, released in June 2018! The album is available on her website, and also digitally from most platforms.
#fiddle #dance #traditional #appalachian #oldtime
"This is a Appalachian oldtime fiddle tune. My version is influenced by Tennessee fiddler Arthur Smith, Texas fiddler Benny Thomasson, and my mentor Jim Wood. I tuned my fiddle to DDAD, and I replaced the G string with a viola C string in order to keep tension on the string in the lower tuning (tuning down the G string causes problems with the loose tension, it goes out of tune when bowed).

[@NiallMor]

I love the expression of delight on your face as you play and dance. You look as if you are having as much fun performing as we are watching and listening to you.

[@chris72.]

I could picture Napoleon retreating while you play this that was really awesome I enjoyed listening to it. Thank you for playing that 😊♥️

[@teemuvesala9575]

For most of Napoleon's career he was advancing, not retreating. He won more battles than any other general in history. 43 battles total, out of which 38 he won and only 5 he lost. In 17 of his victorious battles he was outnumbered and also outnumbered in all of his 5 defeats.

[@CampbellCornLab]

I luv this tune!!! Throw in Hillary's talent (and all American beauty) she is a new American Treasure.

This woman is simply amazing. Such a genuine person and her personality surges with her spirit. How rare is it to see someone of this calibur perform with such grace while spreading happiness that she so very much shows. It almost seems in this video she is amazed at how awesome the entire event was as it took place, from the background to the sound. I am an old man in love. LOL She is AWESOME!

I always enjoy watching you Ms Hillary, the birds must be singing as you play and dance with your fiddle that beautiful tune.I know the ANGELS in heaven must be dancing right along with you as your blue eyes sparkle and that always GORGEOUS golden crown of glory dances in the wind with those ANGELS. My soul rejoices with HolyGhost goosebumps as I watch you dance for JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. I know he is right there with you and your camera person. I pray a hedge of protection around you and your crew.God bless you in 2019.thanks for sharing.
