5.0 out of 5 stars
A lively reference unparalleled in the music industry,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yodel-Ay-Ee-Oooo: The Secret History of Yodeling Around the World (Paperback)
Yodel-Ay-Ee-Oooo is the first book to provide an analysis of the art of yodeling as a world-wide phenomenon. From the Swiss mountains to the African Pygmies and beyond, this provides regional surveys of yodeling styles and yodelers, showing that the art has its roots in many countries and throughout the musical world. Add discographies of featured yodelers and you have a lively reference unparalleled in the music industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The best (maybe the only?) book on the subject of yodeling!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yodel-Ay-Ee-Oooo: The Secret History of Yodeling Around the World (Paperback)
The book is exhaustive, exhausting, and huge fun. The author, Bart P., has researched yodeling better than any human being in his right mind should, and that statement should tell you a lot about the author. His style is comprehensive, engaging, and humorous, always treating yodeling lovingly but never, _ever_ taking it too seriously.
If you are a yodeling fan you should have already stopped and ordered this book. If you are not one - go ahead and read it - it will turn you into one whether you like it or not. |
