Summary
A collection of field, commercial, and private label recordings, interviews, newsletters, brochures, broadsides, music, video cassettes, and correspondence of the association. Materials are added periodically, filed and indexed in the order they are received. The Missouri State Old Time Fiddlers Association is a nonprofit organization devoted to the preservation of "that genre of fiddle playing and accompaniment unique to the musical tradi-tions of the State of Missouri, and known as Missouri old time fiddling ...." Its members seek to provide information and assistance to individuals and groups in the state who are sponsoring or organizing old time fiddling contests and events. They are also interested in "promulgating, dis-seminating, and otherwise popularizing Missouri old time fiddling music" through publication in written or phonographic form as well as "providing a forum for the determination of a consensus of thought among... contest participants concerning contest rules, formats, and scoring procedure." They produce an annual calendar of fiddling contests and events that is distributed to the membership.
