How to play
spoons in under 10 minutes
"This video goes out to my older brother, PJ. He thought he wasn't musically inclined, but from now on he is designated spoon-man at our Passover hoe-downs."
"Most recently spoons have been associated with Western and American folk music as they provide easy and accessible accompaniment like the jug and washboard, to any variety of instruments such as fiddle and guitar. However, musical spoons can be seen in other cultures further back such as those of Russian Gypsies that improvised and created almost all of their music from what they had around them. Spoons can also be found in Irish folk music, French folk music, and Canadian music."
