West African fiddlers have accompanied singing and dancing with one-string gourd fiddles since the twelfth century[citation needed], and many black musicians in America learned on similar homemade fiddles before switching over to the European violin[citation needed]. As early as the mid-1600s, black fiddlers ("exquisite performers on three-stringed fiddles") were playing for both black and white dancers at street celebrations in the Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam (New York City), and by 1690 slave fiddlers were routinely providing the music at plantation balls in Virginia.[4]
