This is a show in two parts: (1) The first hour offers songs from some of the top winners at the 2014 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, perhaps the most prestigious of all folk music awards in the United Kingdom. Featured are Martin Carthy and Clannad who earned lifetime achievement awards. (2) The second hour offers selections from new albums that offer excellent musical glimpses of everyday life and the human condition.
Mixed in at both ends is fine fiddling from Donna Hebert, a master of French-Canadian fiddling, who will be in concert with vocalist Josée Vachon in our broadcast area Saturday night.
