Bluegrass is one of the great American Art Forms that has spread around the world. It has its roots in Irish, Scottish, English traditional music and was brought with the immigrants from those places to the hill country and low lands of the Appalachian Mountain Chain. The music survived many years in the seclusion of those places until the great migrations of the early part of the twentieth century. Then, combined with the African rhythms of jazz and blues and mass media in the form of radio and records it moved into its currently recognizable form. This brought Bluegrass into the great population centers where it was cherished by the migrants and grew to be “music to the ears” of many in the general population.
