In Julia Wolfe’s ‘With a Blue Dress On’, performed as part of the Bang on a Can marathon (Austria 2015 ), Ms. Germino tapped, stomped, played, hummed and sang over eight recorded tracks of herself playing, humming and singing. The guileless simple harmonies of the folk song about a pretty little girl in a blue dress who steals mules and breaks hearts became a vehicle for a gloriously free and wild fiddle tantrum in which virtuosity and mischief-making went hand in hand.
