Out in the Great Wide World! Description: For so long, Cajun music has been virtually unknown outside Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas. This is changing due to the hard work of a lot of people! Maybe the world is getting smaller? I would like this portion to celebrate our friends from beyond Cajun country who honor us with their faithful dedication to authentic music, and who play it well! Also, it'll be a mix of familiar faces taking Cajun music to unexpected places. The New Lost City Ramblers, featuring Mike Seeger, John Cohen, and Tracy Schwarz, became great friends of Cajun music through the festival performances of the Balfa Brothers, such as at Newport Folk Festival etc. in the mid- to late 60s. Here you have Mike Seeger joining Michael Doucet and Marc Savoy for a lovely tune, Savoy Family Waltz. Tracy Schwarz collaborated with Dewey Balfa on a couple of fiddle instruction records on the Folkways label. Here he leads his own trio in a wonderful tune Dewey used to do, J'ai Pleurer. "Tu va pleurer pareil comme moi j'ai fais. Tu seras trop tard, moi j'pourras pas pardonner." The Chicago Cajun Aces were another fortunate connection that the Balfa Brothers made at the famed Chicago Folk Festival also in the 60s. Charlie Terr and his gang of musicians do a lively Musician's Two Step. Bois Sec Ardoin, another early ambassador of Cajun music to northern audiences in many, many festival performances, here with the next generation of Creole musicians, brothers Danny and Ed Poullard. And yet another connection with the Balfas, Cleoma's Ghost, who are Roger Weiss on fiddle and Buffy Lewis on guitar from the state of New York, with a haunting reprise of an Aldus Roger favorite, Attention, C'est Mon Couer Qui Va Casser. Lionel Leleux gives an emotional performance substituting for his friend Dewey Balfa, from the Augusta, West Virginia Musical Heritage Week in 1997. The finest Cajun and Creole musicians appear annually at this event, and others like it, sharing generously their skill and enthusiasm. Bonne chance a tout eusse.That's Wilson Savoy, Marc Savoy's son, on accordion; Kevin Courville on fiddle, Bobby Michot (yes, one of the Freres Michot) on guitar and vocal, and Morris Ardoin on 'tit fer, live from the Liberty Theater, Eunice, Louisiana, Cajun Rendezvous program carried by radio KRVS at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette. Tune in Saturdays at 7 pm Eastern time. Eric Martin builds Cajun accordions in France and has been playing Cajun music for over 30 years, including some time spent in Louisiana where he played often with the KEUN Mamou Cajun Hour. Here he does Le Blues de Francais by Moise Robin and Tiger Rag Blues by the Breaux Brothers, later named Frog Leg Two Step by Nathan Abshire.
