Summary
Bessie Brown's musical family background; definition of diddling.
Bessie Brown's musical background came from her mother's people, who were all good singers, and from her father, whose three brothers played the pipes. Her pipe tutor used singing to teach timing. Bessie describes diddling simply as singing without words.
