Texas dance halls are iconic structures that have played a prominent role in the statersquo;s culture from its earliest stages. They became central institutions in the earliest European settlements and provided these immigrant communities with a common; central space in which to build new ways of life in a new land. The settlement patterns of the mostly German; Czech; Polish; and other central European migrants of this period gave East Central Texas the statersquo;s greatest concentration of dance halls. Thousands of these halls were built throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries; but at present; their numbers have dwindled considerably; and many are at risk.

RidingsThis isnt just a book of transcribed solos from Charlie Christian... Not even close. This is a method that shows exactly how to see from the perspective of Charlie Christian. I absolutely loved pages 7-20 because it really gives you an understanding of how Charlie broke down the neck. This has been valuable to me as a beginner/intermediate Jazz student and really aloud the transcriptions to soak in. I havent gotten to all the solos yet; but I couldnt wait to give a shout out to how much this book has helped me!
