Definición

  • Composer, Song-catcher, and Musicologist John Jacob Niles was the most important collector of songs sung by ordinary American doughboys during World War I. His father was a folksinger and square-dance caller, his mother a pianist and church organist. Niles was raised in rural Kentucky, where he learned both the songs of ordinary people and the basics of music theory and composition.
