Appalachian Spring, composed by Aaron Copland This piece was inspired by the shaker's hymn, "Simple Gifts": "Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free, 'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be, And when we find ourselves in the place just right, 'Twill be in the valley of love and delight. When true simplicity is gain'd, To bow and to bend we shan't be asham'd, To turn, turn will be our delight, Till by turning, turning we come round right."

Appalachian State 34 Michigan 32 One of the Greatest Upsets in Sports History. September 1, 2007 Appalachian State University ranked #1 in FCS (Football Championship Series/formerly I-AA) opens 2007 season by going to Ann Arbor, Michigan and defeating the University of Michigan ranked # 5 in FBS (Football Bowl Sub-Division). 110000 people were in attendance at the Big House. It was over when... Corey Lynch blocked Michigan's FG attempt with just seconds remaining. But Appalachian State had knocked the wind out of Michigan's D -- and Wolverines fans -- long before that. Gameball goes to... Armanti Edwards. The sophomore QB threw for 227 yards and three TDs and rushed for one more. More important than the numbers was the composure he displayed in the Big House. Heisman hopeful? Stat of the game... 5. That was Michigan's rank entering this game. Since 1978 when the NCAA began classifying IA and I-AA, no I-AA team had beaten a IA team ranked in the AP poll before this game. This would be the final season opener for Michigan's Legendary Coach Lloyd Carr. The Michigan Wolverines would go on to finish 2nd in the Big Ten Conference and defeat the Florida Gators (Quarterbacked by Heisman Trophy Winner Tim Tebow) in the Capital One Bowl, 41-35. Appalachian State University would go on to win its 3rd consecutive FCS national title (2005, 2006, & 2007), defeating the University of Delaware, 49-21, at Finley Stadium in Chattanooga, TN.

To get this entire 1 hour video, go to www.createspace.com This scene present the Winters, a husband and wife team singing Blackjack Davey. Way back in 1964, New York filmmaker, David Hoffman was headed down with his new 16mm hand help camera (weight 49 lbs!) to spend three weeks driving the backcountry around Madison County, North Carolina, in the center of Appalachia, with the 82 year old founder of the pioneer Asheville Mountain Music and Dance Festival, Bascom Lamar Lunsford. The resulting film, "Bluegrass Roots" lets you hear and experience the hard scrabbling, dirt road real people sounds that dominated the back country of the southern mountains 40 years ago. It presents a string of the most extraordinary singers, players and dancers the BlueGrass Mountains had to offer. Many later became famous. Some were never heard from again. Most of the songs are classics, including Lunsford's own tune, "Mountain Dew." When this film aired on Public Television in 1965, TV Guide gave it a full-page positive review, because Americans had never seen a documentary on the roots of Bluegrass and Country music. Today, the dirt roads and the moonshine counties are largely modernized, and Bluegrass Roots, stands as a record of a uniquely talented group of people at a time just before the coming of television, changed them. www.createspace.com/204609

Appalachia Waltz, composed by Mark O'Connor, gained fame as the title track from the album featuring O'Connor, YoYo-Ma, and Edgar Meyer. The Sony Classical Release remained for many months in the top ten of Billboard Magazine's Classical music chart. O'Connor originally composed the piece as a solo for unaccompanied violin in 1993 before he brought it to the trio when compiling material for their album. With musical influences coming from Scandinavian and Appalachian Folk fiddling, O'Connor creates two independent lines while playing double-stops surprising the listener who is hearing just one violin. It is one of O'Connor's most beautiful pieces. On O'Connor's 'Appalachia Waltz' "What Bach did was, he took all these dances from all the known world around him and put them in suite form. Old dances, new dances, courtly dances, peasant dances. And what Mark did was, he took this piece that is somewhat based on the Norwegian fiddling style, with the drone and that, wrote it in Santa Fe, and called it `Appalachia Waltz.' It's just so moving. It's traditional. It is new. It comes from many different places, but it's authentic. So after a long Bach evening, rather than play more Bach, this is the perfect thing." -Yo-Yo Ma For more information on Mark O'Connor, String Camps, The O'Connor Method, ensembles, repertoire, sheet music and more, please visit www.markoconnor.com For More YouTubes of Mark O'Connor's music www.youtube.com twitter.com www.facebook.com

Produced by Todd Scoggins. Music by Troye Kinnett. Narrated by David Powell. Filmed on location in the Red Bird Valley, southeastern Kentucky, Cumberland region of the Appalachian Mountains. Be a friend of this movie on Facebook: www.facebook.com For more information, or to order a DVD of this movie, contact: www.rbmission.org Synopsis- Deep within the forests of Appalachia is a storied community of refuge and hope. The mountain people refer to it simply, and affectionately, as Red Bird. This mission has been in operation for nearly one-hundred years. The scattered populations and cultural uniqueness make it difficult for many service organizations to operate in this rugged, unforgiving land. But Red Bird has worked exclusively in this area since the 1920's. The Red Bird Mission has been described as the most comprehensive mission site in the world. Nearly 3000 people journey annually from across the United States to bring support to fellow Americans in this breathtaking landscape. These volunteers are frequently humbled and inspired by the richness of Appalachian culture. This documentary follows very personal stories of hope. The filmmaker was granted unprecedented access into the private, symbiotic relationship between Red Bird and the mountain people it serves. Highly protective of this relationship for decades, mission leaders grew to trust the filmmaker before allowing this project to proceed. Using discrete audio equipment out of respect, the filmmaker captured <b>...</b>

National Geographic: Into the Wilderness: Appalachian Trail Saturday March 12, 2011 at 7 pm ET Produced by National Geographic Television Four million people hike part of the Appalachian Trail every year, but few experience the full breadth of America's first National Scenic Trail. We'll traverse the 3500 km long path through 14 states, along the ridgeline of the ancient Appalachian Mountains. We'll encounter rattlesnakes in the Mid-Atlantic and giant moose in the mountains of Maine - and climb to the treeless heights of a frozen Mount Washington. Approximately 250000 acres of protected land surround the Appalachian Trail. Thousands of species of plants and animals live here - 2000 are rare, sensitive, threatened or endangered.

"Tell It to the Banjo" is a backwoods bluegrass banjo hymn composed by Angel Jose Ruiz Perez, which provides the soundscape for this video about rural poverty in Appalachia. The chronic poverty of Appalachia is the outcome of economic domination and racism. In the 1930s, southern politicians prevented farm workers and domestic servants from qualifying for Social Security because they knew that the small Social Security check would support families and would change the labor market in the South. In the early days of coal mining, coal operators prevented workers from unionizing and demanding fair wages. In the face of bitter competition among the coal companies, operators controlled everything about workers' lives to keep their labor costs down. By preventing education and community participation the operators forced workers into submission. President Lyndon B. Johnsons War on Poverty instituted national legislation, but the dynamics of exploitation in Appalachia prevented distribution of its opportunities and benefits. To this day, impoverishment in Appalachia persists.
