This page consists of links to my transcriptions of various Missouri-style fiddle tunes. Most are my renditions as I learned them, adapted from the playing of old-time fiddlers who have shared their music with me over the years. Check out my list of One Hundred Essential Missouri Fiddle Tunes. If you want to learn strictly by ear or just listen to some tunes visit www.charliewalden.com and click the "PROJECT" link. Thanks and keep fiddlin'. Charlie Walden

provided for each tune. Chords are indicated as a guide to the
accompanist. I’ve included a few comments about each, from whom I
learned it, alternate recorded and printed sources, etc.
