In 1929, Amadie Breaux recorded the first known version of "Jole Blon," soon to become a classic standard of Cajun music from Louisiana. He called it Ma Blonde Est Partie (My Blonde Went Away and Left Me). In 1935, the historic Hackberry Ramblers recorded "Jolie Blonde" in G Major that is essentially the version that is known today. Harry Choates -- considered one of the greats in Cajun music -- changed the tune back to the key of A Major and recorded "Jole Blonde" in 1946 producing the definitive version that nearly everyone emulates today. This two-violin version was arranged by Mark O'Connor and Doug Kershaw, transcribed from their 1992 recording of it on O'Connor's multi Grammy nominated "Heroes" album in 1992 for the O'Connor Method Book IV and its companion CD "MOC 4" released 2014.

This video is the actual footage from the professional CD recording session. Violin students can see the performers as they record the very rendition that Mark O'Connor authored for his Method and is included in Book IV. O'Connor and played through a matched pair of AKG C-12 microphones circa 1950s.
