When Cecil Sharp came to America, he was hoping to find authentic examples of traditional English Folk Music and dance, particularly from the Appalachian region. He aimed to document and preserve these folk traditions, believing they were remnants of the music brought over by early English settlers. His work ultimately contributed significantly to the American folk music revival and the recognition of the cultural heritage found in American folk traditions.
