À propos de cette écoute
The violin might be one of the most Canadian of musical instruments. In fact, there are a dozen different styles specific to Canada—styles like West Coast, Prairie, Ottawa Valley, Down East and the star of this episode, Cape Breton. Yet if one zealous priest had gotten his way, the distinctive Cape Breton sound wouldn't exist. Join me as we explore the legends and history of Reverend Kenneth J. MacDonald, the infamous Fiddle-Burning Priest of Cape Breton Island.
