Neuware - In the latter half of the twentieth century, Ron Gonnella's extensive discography played a pivotal role in reviving interest in traditional Scottish fiddling, particularly in the United States. Jane MacMorran's The Legacy of Ron Gonnella offers an in-depth exploration of this legendary fiddler whose influence has largely been overlooked in mainstream music history. MacMorran situates the musician's work within the cultural shifts of the 1960s, '70s, and '80sdecades that witnessed multiple folk music revivals as Gonnella's career developed in a niche tradition. This book reintroduces Gonnella as a significant figure whose contributions to Scottish fiddling helped shape performance standards and influence future generations of musicians. Beginning in Barga, Italy, and traveling through Scotland before arriving in North America, Gonnella's life and work reflect a complex dialogue between cultures, historical periods, and musical traditions. MacMorran examines how Gonnella's work was shaped by and helped shape various musical communities, showing that he was an active participant in the ongoing evolution of Scottish fiddling. Through oral histories, archival material, and interviews with musicians who performed with or were influenced by Gonnella, the author uncovers a vibrant narrative of cross-cultural exchange. The result is a rich portrayal of Gonnella's life-long contribution to Scottish fiddling and a case for his inclusion in the wider narrative of traditional music history.…
