The second edition of the Susquehanna Folk Festival was held on July 26-28, 2019, at beautiful Roundtop Mountain Resort in Lewisberry. We were fortunate to have three days of absolutely gorgeous weather as a backdrop for a fantastic festival, which featured such main stage performers as Hot Club of Cowtown (the act voted #1!), BeauSoleil with Michael Doucet, Dom Flemons, Cherish the Ladies, Pride of New York, Kittel and Co. featuring John Doyle, and the Faux Paws. The Emerging Artist Showcase was again an audience favorite, and this year’s winning act, The Quixote Project, earned a spot on the main stage and studio time at Radio Vibe Recording. The festival’s Liars Contest was also well received, and the winners were Gary Buchanan, 1st place; Robin Moore, 2nd place; and Sandy Schuman, 3rd place. However, the big hit of the festival was the dance hall, where there was a packed floor of enthusiastic dancers during nearly the entire 32 hours of festival programming. All in all there were 77 events including 27 performances, 11 workshops, nine dances, nine jams, six family activities, five storytelling events, four interviews with master musicians, four traditional craft demonstrations, and four “Country Music” talk-backs with musicians. The festival drew 1,400 attendees from all over Pennsylvania; 16 other states (CA, DC, DE, FL, KY, MA, MD, MS, NC, NJ, NY, OH, SC, VA, VT & WV); and Norway and Germany. We’d like to thank all our wonderful sponsors and also our honored guest, Tony Chauveaux, the National Endowment for the Bulgarian Folk Dance, Friday, September 6 Arts’ deputy chairman for programs and partnerships.

The Quebec-based group returns to Central Pennsylvania for a Susquehanna Folk Music Society concert at 7:30 pm on Friday, September 20, 2019, at Millersville University’s Ware Center, 42 North Prince Street, Lancaster. Genticorum is known for its energy and stage presence, often being mistaken for a larger ensemble. Sing Out! Magazine says the band “makes a very full and glorious noise, both instrumentally and vocally (with) a compelling sound that retains its joy.” Firmly rooted in the soil of their native land, this energetic and original “power trio” also incorporates the dynamism of today’s North American and European folk cultures in their music. They weave precise and intricate fiddle, flute, and accordion work, gorgeous vocal harmonies, energetic foot percussion, and guitar accompaniment into a big and jubilant musical feast. Their distinctive sound, sense of humor, and stage presence make them a supreme crowd pleaser. Pascal Gemme is a leading light in Quebec’s traditional music scene. Known as much for his original compositions as for his fine interpretation of traditional tunes, he is the band’s fiddler, singer, and arranger, helping to produce six Genticorum CDs that have won worldwide critical acclaim. From a young age, the fiddle music and songs of Gemme’s native province have captivated him. After graduating from Montreal’s St. Laurent College with a degree in composition and band arrangements, he immersed himself in the traditional music around him, playing, collecting, and recording music found all over Quebec. The Susquehanna Folk Music Society is pleased to join with Dauphin County Parks and Recreation in presenting the musical entertainment at the annual Fort Hunter Day celebration on Sunday, September 15, 2019, on the grounds of Fort Hunter, 5300 North Front Street, Harrisburg. Musical performances will take place at the Corn Crib Stage, located beside the Fort Hunter Centennial Barn, at the following times: Session Concert tickets are $25 for general admission, Troy Engle & Southern Skies - 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm $22 for SFMS members, and $5 for students www.troyengle.com ages 3-22.

Central Pennsylvania Traditions, the Newsletter of the Susquehanna Folk Music Society page 4 www.sfmsfolk.org Old Blind Dogs, Thursday, September 26 Since forming in 1992, a strong, shared musical vision has helped Old Blind weather the inevitable lineup changes (one founding member remains) so that each incarnation of the band brings the polished vocals, soaring fiddle, stirring pipes, and dynamic percus- sion that have long thrilled fans. Old Blind Dogs have released 13 studio albums; their latest CD, “Room With a View,” was shortlisted for Album of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards in 2017. The band has twice won the prestigious title of Folk Band of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards. Aaron Jones (bouzouki, vocals, guitar) is one of the most in-demand accompanists on the traditional music scene today. He tours worldwide and records with some of the biggest names in traditional music, including Kate Rusby, Siobhan Miller, Emily Smith, and Robyn Stapleton. He was voted Instrumentalist of the Year in a public vote at the 2005 Scots Trad Music and for 10 years has been an official accompanist for the BBC Young Traditional Scottish Musician of the Year Award.

Unlike other peoples of France, the Bret ons are a Celtic people; their culture, language, and music are closely related to Welsh, Irish, and Scottish traditions. From this heritage comes the band Bleizi Ruz for an FSGW Special Event concert on Friday, May 16. The music of Bleizi Ruz (Breton for "Red Wolves") comes from the tradi tional "festnoz," or late-night Breton ceilis. In towns throughout the region, people of all ages gather to socialize and dance to the music of the bombarde and biniou (folk oboe and bagpipe), fiddle, and accordion. The tunes combine haunting melodies with lively dance rhythms, creating an unforgettable sound. The Bleizi Ruz repertoire includes these dance tunes, as well as songs, and tunes arranged for listening. This is the first U.S. tour for this popular Breton band, so don't miss it! The concert will be held at the Department of Commerce’s Hoover Audi torium on 14th St. between Constitution Avenue and E St. NW.

  • Traditional Music of Scotland
    Traditional Music of Scotland A Journey to the Musical World of Today Abstract Immigrants from Scotland have been arriving in the States since the early 1600s, bringing with them various aspects of their culture, including music. As different cultures from around Europe and the world mixed with the settled Scots, the music that they played evolved. For my research project, I will investigate the progression of “traditional” Scottish music in the United States, and how it deviates from the progression of the same style of music in Scotland itself, specifically stylistic changes, notational changes, and changes in popular repertoire. I will focus on the relationship of this progression to the interactions of the two countries throughout history. To conduct my research, I will use non-fiction sources on the history of Scottish music, Scottish culture and music in the United States, and Scottish immigration to and interaction with the United States. Beyond material sources, I will contact my former Scottish fiddle teacher, Elke Baker, who conducts extensive study of ethnomusicology relating to Scottish music. In addition, I will gather audio recordings of both Scots and Americans playing “traditional” Scottish music throughout recent history to compare and contrast according to their dates. My background in Scottish music, as well as in other American traditional music styles, will be an aid as well. I will be able to supplement my research with my own collection of music by close examination. To culminate my project, I plan to compose my own piece of Scottish music that incorporates and illustrates the progression of the music from its first landing to the present.

Venues are booked, the website is about to undergo a major facelift, Pand the guest list is first-rate. The only question is: where to start? Joining our own Paul Anderson, the NAFCo 2006 guest list boasts a world-class line up of leading musicians from the far reaches of the North Atlantic – Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Canada, USA – and we’ve had interest from a group in Lithuania. Alasdair Fraser’s dynamic fiddling, engaging presence, and deep understanding of Scotland’s music has inspired listeners and learners around the world. His rich expressive playing transports people across a broad musical spectrum, ranging from haunting laments from the Gaelic tradition to classically-styled airs, up-tempo dance tunes, and improvisations based on traditional themes. At NAFCo 2006, Alasdair will be joined by vibrant young cellist, Natalie Haas, a recent Juilliard graduate and virtuoso in her own right. The duo’s teamwork reveals deep textures and powerful rhythms that drive the fiddle tunes, asserting the cello’s role at the heart of the music. Their debut duo album, Fire & Grace, was awarded the Best Album of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards 2004. Alasdair will be teaching workshops and featuring in performances throughout NAFCo 2006, and Natalie will join us for ‘With fire in his soul and a twinkle in his eye, Alasdair Fraser breathed life into music by the earliest masters up to the present day.

  • Is This Jazz?: Newport Jazz Fest '18 Review,EDM Event Preview: Tight Crew's Block Rockin Beats,Getting Down and Dirty At
    Jazz Insights: Bonnie Mann Three years ago we lost one of jazz’s popular cabaret singers. Eighty-five year old Bonnie Mann (Boncorsi Wotherspoon) was born in Pawtucket. Known for her big- band style singing she regularly could be found throughout Rhode Island with many of the great performing jazz and dance groups. Bonnie sang at the old King & Queens’ Restaurant on Mineral Spring Avenue with, at the time, the young Mike Renzi and others. Her beauty, style and professional voice continually captured local audiences. Her renditions of early American Song Book compositions became favorites among her loyal following. She was a constant worker for the Providence Musician’s Union and was known by musicians state-wide. Her friends numbered in the hundreds. In her later years she performed quite regularly with the late Mac Chrupcala and his several jazz groups. Bonnie kept singing with her heart to her very end; she died in January 2015. The jazz industry in Rhode Island will not forget the late Bonnie Mann.and her dynamic jazz singing voice. Ball Drop Beat Drop: More fun than should be allowed Much like the extra dry champagne served on the holiday, New Year’s Eve traditions can be a bit stale. Interested in switching it up? Then head to Platforms Dance Club in Providence on December 31 to ring in the new year at Tight Crew (TC)’s Neon Masquerade Ball! You may want to buy your tickets now, because this limited-ticket event will feature 16 DJs from all over the US, fire performances, a heated outdoor tent and a game room! So pick out a cute outfit and get plenty of rest, because the event runs from 6pm to 3am.

  • Highland Heartbeat
    HIGHLAND HEARTBEAT -- Centuries-old Tradition Meets Modern Music to Capture the Heart and Soul of Scotland in Song in New TV Special Premiering on PBS beginning February 28 -- Singer/actress Fiona Kennedy, a member of Scotland’s leading theatrical family and well- known in North America as the host of “Tartan TV,” leads a group of singers brought together from a country-wide audition to represent a range of musical styles. Singers Jim Malcolm, Jillian Isbister, Maureen McMullan, Daisy Chute and Darren Maclean perform at the historic Theatre Royal in Glasgow backed by the Scottish Festival Orchestra. The men wear the traditional Scottish kilt, and the women wear modern designs that riff on traditional Scottish themes. Emmy Award-winning Scottish actor Brian Cox (“The Bourne Supremacy”) reads the works of Scotland’s national bard, Robert Burns, with stunning footage of Scotland interspersed between songs. The concert was shot in high definition in August 2008. Opening with the emotive wails of the distinctive Scottish bagpipe, the music performed in HIGHLAND HEARTBEAT embodies the pride and passion of a country rich with history, offering a concert that spans genres and generations from traditional Scottish compositions like “Loch Lomond” and “Down in the Glen” to pop hits originally sung by Carly Simon, Bette Midler, and Simon and Garfunkel that infuse Scottish cultural significance to the familiar lyrics. HIGHLAND HEARTBEAT premieres nationwide beginning February 28 on PBS (check local listings). Starting with “Raise the Flag for Scotland (Lightly Swims the Swan)” and “My Heart’s in the Highlands,” HIGHLAND HEARTBEAT speaks to the spirit of Scotland with a diverse repertoire that will satisfy the nostalgia of first generation immigrants and spark a new appreciation for family culture in younger viewers.

  • New Harmonies
    Dear Teacher: Welcome to New Harmonies: Celebrating American Roots Music, an exhibition organized by the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum on Main Street program and brought to you by your state humanities council. These materials and activities were compiled to help your students observe, imagine, learn & contribute to the discussion of American roots music during their visit to the exhibition. While it’s desirable to participate in each step, it’s certainly not required. In fact, each individual piece will provide your students with thought-provoking questions and activities. You can easily customize lessons or even develop your own methods of exploring roots music! The lesson plans that accompany New Harmonies will help you create a meaningful experience for your students. Each includes Pre-visit, Visit, and Post-visit activities. All the lessons can be adapted for younger or older audiences, so evaluate each lesson before selecting activities for your students. The Pre-visit step is designed to be simple, to introduce the students to the exhibit topic, and to be easy to implement. This step is intended to stimulate the students’ curiosity and help students gather information for use in visit and post-visit activities. The Visit step is focused on information gathering. This is a time for the students to explore and read the exhibit content, enjoy audio samples, and utilize interactive components. The activity worksheets included in this section will help students gather enough information to apply their knowledge in a later classroom activity. With all activities and worksheets, students can work individually or in groups. The Post-visit step consists of ideas and activities to implement after your return to the classroom.
