From mountains to metropolis on Vimeo

Thanks again to an anonymous correspondent, who forwards this link to a series of eight short films produced by University of Alabama (UAB) students in the 2012 Ethnographic Filmmaking class of the UAB Media Studies Program.

The film that most concerns BIB readers is From mountains to metropolis: old time music in Birmingham, made by Stephanie Cook and Rachell Berry, and showing both traditional and revival players of Birmingham, Alabama. Our correspondent forwards it 'from mutual friends in Alabama and via old-time midland friends Tony & Liz Holleran'. The BIB's thanks go to everyone concerned.
