In addition to traditional tunes and songs, Hope shares her original fiddle and viola tunes and often-comic storytelling about the farming, winterizing and neighborly adventures which inspire them. Hope's CD Review of the CD: "Pure New England fiddle music, proud of its rural past, relishing the present ... the feeling of a warm kitchen above a well-stocked root cellar ... The performances are inviting, warm, energized and straight ahead, with a bit of mischief thrown in." - Greg Boardman |
