EDITOR'S
NOTE
August,1961,Orillia Oval.-The audience,
somefour thousand.The first voice.
PeteMcGarvey Sr.:
'Tb
inaugurate thisunique eaentin
Canadianmusicalhistory,I unuld like to
call to thestageHis WorchipMapr George
Mclzan,
'Orillia Mapr of the towtt of Oillia.'.
Counciland all citizeu of Oillia, an
uprasion ofgreatgratitude to thefounden of
thisfatiual, Dr andMrc. CrawftrdJonesand
Mr Ed Counn,producerand promoterand to
all whohaaebeenassociatedin this mammoth
undertaking.Theyhaaewon our lastittg
appreciationfor an accomplishmentthat will
ranhamongthegreatmomentsof Oillia."
rlhus, Mariposawasintroducedand
I officially openedthirty years ago for
peopleto hold poety through music.
TodayMariposaencouragestraditional and
contemporarywork rooled in our folklore. It
has beensaidthat poetry is the most potent
of humancommunication,a
simpleand
logicalexpression.Music andpoeby can be
greater than their parts. hompted by an
idea,enhancedby a rhyme, pointed by meter,
colouredby metaphor;poetic fusion is
beyondanalysisand at times logic when it
touchesthe human soul. It is our collective
soulwhich movesour nation. 'This land is
your land...?
"lf
foetry coma not as naturally as the leaoq
to a tree,it hadbetternot comeat all."
(ohn Keats1818)Poeby expressedthrough
folklore is part of people'sculture. Often
hiddenby theyield to commerce,today's
folklore can be heard when an aulomobile
manufacturerevokesa metaphysicalanalog5r
by usingthe word "strearnline,"or an
architect's"skyscraper,"or a part5/s
"crasher.'Like the leaves
of Keat'spoetic
metaphor,the Songsof Mariposacan conjure
nafuralspirit. Mariposaand Molson share
the purposeof bringing this most important
collectionof singers,writers, dancers,
musicians,artists and poets to you.
Pleasejoin us to welcomeand respecttheir
artisticwealth.The contentof this guide to
Mariposais the resultantsynergismof

Thankyoueveryone.

THIS LIND IS YOUR tND
fs scary how a folk song can inspire
f
Ipeople to move. I have a dream to teach
Canadianculture and heritage through
folk song," saysJerry Gray founder of
The Travellers.
Thb land is your land
.....thkland is my land
from Bonauista
.....to VancouuerIdand
Guy Carawanwho helped to lead the sit-in
npvement during the late ffiies and
sixtieswasvisitingToronto in 1954when
he taught'This [and" to The Travellers.
From theArtic Circle
Carawanexplained to The Travellers that
the original song by Woodie Guthrie was
not being played in the United States
becauseof the political climate and
Guthrie'spolitical views. Guthrie's friend
PeteSeegerhad also been black listed
during those oppressive years. To many,
Canadawas the only place to work. So The
Travellers who were just forming at that
time, adaptednew words for Canadaand
sung them on a national talent hunt show
which seemedto awakena latent senseof
nationalismin the peoplewho listened.
.....tothe GreatLake waterc
When the group formed in 1953,each
memberof TheTravellers had a
professionother than entertainment.
Their first interest has been their love of
the music they searchedout and sang
rather than attempting to fulfill a need to
commercializein order to live. "\Mecan
afford to be idealisticbecausewe are not
nnking a living off singing." This
statement readily sums up the aims of The
Travellersand the reasonfor their unique
approachto folk-singing in Canada

THESTORY
BEHIND
THE
SONG
BYSANDY
MOFFAT
They havebrought folk music of
Canadato more Canadiansthan
ever before with songs of other
cultures added to their
repertoire which balanced
their concert.They have
played the finest
concerthallsin the
countryto the
smallest
community
venuesfrom
coast to coast
I saw aboueme
the endlessskyway
The Travellers toured Canada
during the 1967centennialand
performed someone hundred and
eighty-sixconcertswhere "This land', was
sung as an anthem loud and proud.The
fervor really came through when after a
concert in Inuvik the children wouldn't let
them off stage.They just kept on clapping
and clapping.Clappingis not a normal
form ofexpression for the Inuit people,so
when The Travellers taught its audience
how to clap the young ones enjoyedit so
much they kept on doing it.
I saw belowme thegolden aalley
The Travellers were invited on the first
culfural exchange between the Soviet
Union and Canadain 1961,and performed
twenty six shows in fwentyeight days.
They have also appearedat a Royal
Commandperformanceand playedin
london's famed PalladiumTheatre.
This land wasmadefor you and mz
'We
like to make people aware of Canad4,,
explained Jerry. 'Many have come up to
me after a concert and said,'Youmake me
feel like a Canadian."'

Welcome
bock!
MARIP0SA: Syhia, could yotr tell us
what initiated your interest in music?
SYLYIA:The standardanswer...Icome
from a musicalfamily.My motherwas
bained as a pianist from the age of five.
Shewasan organistand choir leader,
I was in the choir for that reason.My
dadahvaysplayedbyear,but I don't
think there was any consciouseffort on
their part to teachme. I think my
mother did at one point, try to teachme
to play the piano and discoveredat that
point is what most parentsdiscover,is
that teachingyour own hds to drive a
car or play musicalinsbument is very
difficult. I had a few attemptsat learning
piano,but itwas not my instrument.
M: Haveyou foundthat growingup in
a small town like Chathamhad any
influenceon you,with consideration
of the black community there and the
musicwhichthey haveplayed?
St I canaddressthat two ways:a lot of
my songsare basedon that background
and on that small town experience,no
questionof that.I still drawfrom those
stories,but on the otherhand,it also
gaveme a sensibilityabout small town
and rural life, sowhen I go and play in
thoseplaces,I talk to peoplea lot and
get that feedback They understandmy
songswhich reminds them of their own
storieswhich I find very useful.As far as
the black communityin Chatham...
I would haveto saythat at that time
when I wasgrowing up in the forties
and fifties. that there wasnt a lot of
contactwith the black community.
There were maybehalf a dozenblack
kids that I knew and I went to school
with. I wasn'tawareof black culture,
although I was certainly awareof some
blackhistory.Most of what influenced
me wasDetroit radio and a lot of
counfry radio from the Chatham
Station.You haveto understandthat
(and it is a fact I discoveredmuch later
in life) until 1950in Chatham,a black
personcould not be seenin town after
ten otlock at night. It wasn'tsomething
I was awareof and the law may not have
beenseriouslyenforced,but it was
there.Canadianslike to think of
themselvesasthe great enlightened
ones,but this is absolutenonsense.My
older sister told this story; a black friend
of hers was thinking of mouingto
Toronto becausehe had beenup here
and had awonderful time. He said,
"Oh, it's great!Thereare blackjobs
there and peopletreat you like a human
"No, you don't
being." Shesaid,
understand;Canadiansare exfemely
polite to anyonethey feel is their social
inferior."There'sa lot of futh inthat.
Ml How did you becomeinterestedin
traditionalmusic,and how did that
interest in traditional music turn into
your own style?
S: I ahvayshad an interestin English
literatureandcomposition.Thosewere
my sFongest subjects.When I was in
school,we read from a standardhigh
"Grassof
schoolpoefy bookcalled
Parnasus".It containedsomeof the old
ScotsandIrish ballads,the had
published a musicalstaff with a few of
the ballads.Then I realized,thesewere
notiust poems,theseweresongs.
So,becauseI camefrom a musical
background,I wasimmediately
interested.I started working someof
theseout on my own.In fact,until I
arrived inToronto in 1959,most of the
songsI did, I got from library books.I
remembermy sisterbrought home
The Little RedSong Book" from the
ChathamPublic Library before they
discoveredthey had it and took it out of
circulation.Burl Ives songbooks,
amongothers,were the typesof books
from which I learnedsongs,becauseI
didn't haveany records,and besides,
there weren't many folk records;
certain$ the Weaverswere activeat that
point...I guessI had a singleof "Kisses
SweeterThanWine", but other than
that, I didn't haveanythingon records
that much; I ahvaysresearchedthe
songsthatwe did.
M: So,yours is an intellectualprocess?
S: Iwas ns/er someonewho had to get
up and sing and dancefor the folks.The
reasonwhy I am a singer is becauseI
am interestedin the songsfirst as a

researcher,and an interest in old songs
asa writer. Why I perform is because
Iwrit€.
Ml Many of the songsyou haveunitten
are of the shuggle that women
eXperiencein life.
Sl I thinkthat, being awoman, I simpb
lvrite from a woman'spoint of view,
I don'tthink Ite beenconsciousof anv
shong feminist point of view. In facl
when I first wrote "Women'sWorld",
I went through many changeswith that
song.When peoplefirst heard it, they
thought it was interesting, but wasnt it
kind of long and shange.Then when the
feminist movementstarted, I got some
flack sayingthis was not porhaying a
goodimageof women.Nowpeople
seemto have relaxed with it more.
I tendto write aboutwomenasthey are,
ratherthan howthey shouldideallybe.
I do that becauseit is what I see,thafs
what I hearand that'swhat I feel.
M: How is music from the sixties going
to stackup againstthe nineties and the
future?
S: I think every generationproducesits
own scene.I was part of the New York
Vilfige scenein the sixtieg when
I wasn'ton the road (whichI wasalmost
constantb). There is a street scene
going on inToronto right nowwhich
is very activefor songwriters.It's pretty
underground,it's not evena Queen
Sheetscene,ifs probablymore obscure
than that. That there is a certain time
in your life when you are part of that
scenewhenyouare onthe sheet (not
literally), but certainly in terms of your
influences,and
who you hang out with. I
havenow absorbedmy influencesand
now am going aboutthe businessof
writing on life's observations.It is
difficult to compare,becauseeach
generationis uniqueotherwiseyou
would be rehashinghistory.
M: Whatmakesagood song?
S: There are a lot of things which make
a song good. One of the peopleI greatly
admireas awriter is PaulSimon.The
reasonsare that every aspectof his
songwriting is good.The bdcs are very
well thought out; thewonderful images
arewell assembled.Someare
humorous.They are very cenbed.The
melodiesare beautifuland really add to
the feeling of the song.His
arrangementsare superb;that he
al*ays findswonderfulmusiciansand
singers;and that he is alwayse:<ploring
different genresof music to use to
expresshis feelings.All of thosethings
makegood songs.
M: How canwe bring Canadato
Canadians?
Sl That is a tough one,becausethe way
you do it is through art, theahe and
music.How you get peopleto those
things is anothermatter.Someonelike
me doesplay in small communities,but
there has to be Canadianplaysgoing to
Canadiancommunities,there hasto be
Canadianart shownin Canadian
communities,there hasto be something
within the Canadianeducationalsystem
that getsyoung kids out to hearthose
things.There hasto be somethingthat
getsCanadianartiststo the schools.All
kinds of artists, dancetheafe, painters
andpoetssomeof which is done,but
not much...it's not enough.Now here
you havea University,you will have
somekind of creativescenegoing on.
One thing Canadahas dweloped
through thesecenfes, are realb good
regional singer/songrlriters. Somelike
RitaMcNeil will break out to a larger
audience;sheis Maritimeinsideand
out.
M: How do you feelaboutStompin'
Tom s Canadianstance?
S: I havegreat admirationfor Tom.
I think he has filled a certain gap in
Canadianmusic...it is a greatthing.
His style of writing is totally different
from mine, he takes a very populous
view,not that there are no populous
elementsin what I write, but his is a
political point of view, and mine is not.
Mine is nonpartisan to a large degree.
In orderto put his point across,he
loosessubtility,a lot of the time. I'm not
sayingthat isn't necessaryin order to
put acrosshis poinl what he is fying to
do is not a subtlething - he is trying to
be everymanfor oreryman.I don'tthink
peoplehavethe sameemotional
reactionto Tom's songs,asthey do
mine.Mine dealsmorewith the little
tragediesandthe little histories,andnot
so muchwith away of life.Tom'ssongs

Tom Connorswasborn in New
Brunswickduring the mid 1930's,when
this country wasfesteringin the great
Depression.He spentthe first seven
yearsof his life travelling around the
Maritimeswith his previouslydeserted
mother,until he wasreluctantlyplaced
in an orphanagefrom where he was
adoptedby a family from Skinners
Pond,PE.I.
He started writing poemsat the age of
eleven.Eventually,he set the poemsto
music,and by the time he wasfourteen,
he hadwritten about 100songsand had

songsandpursuinga careerin the

It canbe argud that withoutJuri
Connorsmight nerrerhavemetwith the
acclaimwhich was to follow in the next
half decade,when, betweenthe years
1972and 1973,he would sell at the rate
of a rock star.In so doing,hewould
collectsix Junoawardsas Canada'stop
country artist.

I neuerhad a nickel or a dime to show.
A guy beepedu0 in an autonobile, said
dya wanna work in the tabaccofieldsof
Tillsonburg,Tillsonburg;my back still
achs whenI hear that word."
In December 1976, at apoint when his
records were still selling amongthe top
five county artists, Connors quit. In
effect, he went on strike againstthe
Canadianmusic industry.Connors
openly questionedthepractice of giving
Juno awardsto ex-pafiot Canadians
living and having their basisof operation
south of .the border, when there were so
many deserving artists right in our own
baclcyard.His indusby boycottwas
founded on the firm opinion that
Canadianartists were teated like
secondclasscitizens.Connorshimself
suffered from this syndromein 1973
when he was askedto play second
bananato Charlie Pride at the Canadian
National Bxhibition, and later, ashost of
his own C.B.C.television prograrnme.
He wasconholled into presenting
American artists over Canadian.
In 1978,despitehis politicalstand,
Connorswas nominatedfor a seventh
Junoaward.In order not to be coopted
by the industry, he refused the
nomination.Aweek later,he returned
his previouslywonsixJunossaying:'?
wasonceproud to receiue,but am now
ashamedto keep."
"If
it is too much to ashof themfor their
supportin this matter,thenI considcr
that my contributionto the Canadian
musicindustry,thusfar, has been
pointlas."
With thesewords, one of the buh great
spokesmenfor Canadalockedhimself
out of the musicindusby.
'The
musicof strangerctheyplay in our
hom6, and theytell us wedonl haue
sottgsof our own. Theygiue us no choica
and mahcit quite clcar,theyphy what
fueywant usto hear."
In 1987,Connorsendedhis self-imposed
silencewith the releaseof a new album:
Stompin'Tomis Backto Assist
CanadianTalent'.The album was a
political statementrespondingto a then
recentannouncementby the Canadian
Associationof Broadcasters,requesting
that Canadiancontent on radio be
diminishedto belowthe standard30%.
Includedwere extensiveliner notes
boldly entitled 'An AppealTo All
Canadians
From Stompin'Tom'.The
noteselaboratelydetailedthe purpose
behind the releaseof the album,and
providedan explanationfor his absence.
Notabh of the sixteentitles on the disc,
only four are by Connors;the remaining
twelveare pennedand sung by
unknown Canadianartists, which Tom
thoughtworthy of promotion.Although,
the albumwassnubbedby the industry,
it solidifieda lifelong effort by Connors
to promote Canadiantalent.

Restassured,Stompin'Tom'svoice
is not dead,it isvery much alive,and
with the releaseof his 1989album
"Fiddle

life - collecting and documenting our

heritage through the Young'
To the first, he eventuallYamasseda
collection of written and recorded material
unsurpassedin Canada,detailing our
history through song. He went to great
lengths to ensrre thatthe information was
accurate,and he travelled extensively in
order to e:<pandhis own knowledge'
On his demise, mY aunt donatedhis
collection to the National Archives through
the auspicesof Mr. Tom Kines, and the
Jewish Library, on the feeling that he would
have wanted the sum of his life's work made
availableto as many people as possible.
He was frequently on tour throughout
Canadaand the U'S. visiting different
schools,and spreadinginformationof our
heritage to the young ofboth countries
Indeed, he was extremely popular in the
southernU.S.He mademany enduring
friendships with peoplelocated in far-flung
places.He worked closely with Scholastic
PublicationsInc, narrating stories on
records, such as the Curious George stories,
The Magic Frsh, and of course,I Know An
Old lady. Hisprime accompaniest(although
I
MARIPOSA: Tle FeliulolRort
myuncle was a gifted and creative artist; he
would be the first to admit that an accomplishedpitarist he wasnot), wasBram
Morrison. It gives me a wann feeling to see
that Bram is honouringthe memoryof my
uncleby bringing his work to a much wider
audiencethan my uncle everhad.Sharon,
Iois & Bram are reworking a lot of the
numbers which Uncle Al and Bnm did
together all those years ago.
His desire to reach out to the younger
generationwas not confined to his musical
work. In one of his many dramatic roles, he
played part in a stage production ofthe
Diary of Anne Frank. While this may not
havehad much bearing on Canadian
culturalheritage,it conerned anothertype
of culture. He was just as anxiousto solidify
hisJewish culture and heritage.
I misshim so much after all of theseyears.
Ifs hard to lose a loved family member.
Ifs a little bit harder to lose someoneas
specialas he was.I like to think that he
lives on through his music and collections.
Every time my daughter sings I KnowAn
Old lady, orThere'sAHole In MyBucket
with me, he lives.
Mariposawas very important to him in the
earlyyears,and he gavea lot ofhis energy
to it I d like to think that somewherehe is
looking on and gleefully picking up all my
typos,and smiling when he seesthat all of
his work was not for naught; that we have
not lost touch with our past and that
learningabout it can be entertainingas well
as encouraging.

NICKLAIDLAWINMEMORIUM
Hammond Thefollowiltg is bavd on a piecethat wasaireil on CBC-Radio'sMusicd Fiends, February 1990
l\J ick Laidlaq a dearfriend of mine,
I \ diedthis past February.And the
world, this businessdriven, mon€ydrivenworld, is a poorer placewithout
him, becausehe was part of a vanishing
breed.You see,one ofthe roles he
playedin my life and the life of many
otherswasthat of pabon of the arts, or
benefactor,or angel,as they say in
l
showbiz.But o<ceptfor maybe hngel',
those works don't really describewho
he wasor how he did what he did.
Now I don't meanto impb that he \pasan
angelicsort of person, although when I met him 18years ago I thought he
lookedlike a crossbetweenGod and
SantaClaus- tall, paunchy with flowine
white locksand beardand awidewarm
smile.There were differencesthough.
First, he had a senseof humour that
becamemore devilishthe olderhegot.
Also,unlike God or Santa,Nickwore
three watcheson his wrist and carried
an antique brass ear trumpet when his
hearing started to go. After someone
stolethe trumpet, his accessoryof
choice becamea Wallnnan.When conversationsbecametoo difficult to hear,
or I suspect,too boring,he'd simplyput
on the headphonesand tune into CBC.
In otherwords,he waseccenhic.
He was alsoa millionaire,though I think
a reluctant one.The scion of a wealthy
Tbronto famih Nick, sensitivesoul that
he was,choseto becomea child
psychologistrather than enter the
frmily business.And he was absolutely
passionateaboutmusic.Jazzwashis first
love,but when he heard my group,
Shingband,he was genuinely taken with
us, eventhough back then we were raw
andunpolishedand our folky soundwas
newto his ears.SoonNickwas a fixture
at all our gigs, cheering us on like a
surrogatefather.
He also helpedus financially,by panns
for a demotapewhich becameour first
album, CanadianSunset.We put it out
ourselvesand calledour label Nick
Records.He was immenselytickled.
We tied to pay him back but he wouldn't
let us. Then he investedin our second
album. Recordcompaniespassedon ib
too Canadian,too folky, they said,sowe
pressedit ourselvesagain.Like it or not,
we were going it alone- exceptthat is,
for Nick's support.Yearslater,people
calledus pioneersof the independent
record scene- a nice thought, but we
really didnt haveany choice.At times
itwas hellishlydifficult,andnow,75,000
recordslater,I wonderwhatwouldhave
happenedif Nick hadn't beenthere.
Maybe we'd havegiven up halfway.
Maybe we'd havecompromisedthe
music. Maybe ld havelotten a job in an
office and nevermademy solo albumsin
which Nick had also invested.And maybe
I'd neverhavewritten my play,or ended
upwith a CBCCanaclian
musicshow.
Overtheyears,Nick, through the
laidlaw Foundation(which his father
had established),sawto it that festivals
like Mariposarebeivedgenerous
donations.He alsopersonallyhelped
other musiciansandartists,including
young paintersand filmmakers.
CanadianBrigitte Berman,who won
an Oscarfor her documentaryon Artie
Shaw,saysshecouldn'thavedoneit
without Nick's fi nancialinput. But
evenmore important she says,was
his emotionalsupportandentlusiasm.
I agree.I've nevermet anyonewho
rejoiced so much in other people's
creativity as Nick Every new song
I wrote was to him a causefor wonder
and celebration.Music absolutely
hansported him. I can still seehim
sitting closeto the stage,e.yesclosed,
listening intenflywith all his heart and
soul.Often,he took me tohear thejazz
greatswho'd thrilled him in his youth artists like Lena Horne, Peggy[ee, and
Ella. I in hrrn inboducedhim to a host of
youngpr performers, both folk mdjan peoplelike StanRogers,Ferrorl Jane
FahJane Burne$, and others.
Nick oncetold me that when he wasin
the prisoner of war campsdur'urgWorld
War II, he hied to learn the tumpet but
regretfully norer got the hang of it.
Now I've been thinking if there really
is a heaven,at leasta heavenfor Nick
then there's got to be music there - not
just angelicchoirs,but a truly hot big
band with a dynamitesinger.And in
this hearen, Nick knows how to play
the trumpet, and the band gets him up
onstagefor a soloand he closeshis eyes
and hewails awaylike Miles or D'tz,ryor
Bix.Thatwould be heaventoNick not
just to listento music,but to makeit.
Then I thinlq he did make music, and
still is, whether it's on canvas,or
celluloid, or notesin the air. Nick made
music through us, the peoplehe helped
and loved.In this era of hard-nosed
greed and corporateprofiteering,where
the arts are increasinglyfrowned on asa
self-indufuentfrill, he lives on through
his generosity.As longas we keep
making musig so will Nick. 0

think I wasat every oneof the frst
f
I twentyfive MariposaFolk Festivals,
followingthem from Orilliato the Maple
LeafBall Parkin Toronto,then to Innis Iake,
OlympiaIsland,CentreIsland.andthen to
Barrie.I haven'tattendedthe lastthree,
they'vehad very few of the kind of singersI
Iike to hear.My memoriesof festivalsare
boundup with the singersI enjoyed,manyof
whom havebecomemy friends.In the early
Mariposadays,when EstelleKleinwas
artistic director, I could listen to traditional
singerslike JeanRitchie,ElizabethCotton.
Norman Kennedy,BessieJones,I-arry
Older,SarahOganGunning,Baxter
Wareham,Mac Masters,Joeand pat Byrne,
and manyothers.OccasionallyI introduced
someof the OntariosingersI d discovered.
To the first festival I brought O. J. Abbott,
then eighty nine,whosesongsare now being
sungin folk clubs all over Britain,half a
dozensingershaverecordedThe plainsof
Waterloo,'andtwo haveissuedrecordstitled
'By
the Hush'afteranotherof his songs.In
otheryearsI introducedTom Brandon
whoseFolk l.egacyrecord receivedhigh
praisefomAmerican Folklorists,and Mary
Towns,the first singerI foundwheri I
startedlooking for traditionalsongsin
Ontario.I alsoenjoyedhearingmany
modernsingerswho sangfolk songs:British
and Irish singerslike EnochKent, Margaret
Benneftlfuight, EwanMcC.oll,Owen
McBride,and FrankieArmstrong;
Americanslike PeteSeeger,OscarBrand,
SamHinton,and the Beers:and Canadians
like StewartCameron,MaryJane and
WinstonYoung,and Ian and Sylvia,who
originally sangfolk songs.I was delighted
when SaraGrey sangThe BanksofEro'
which I had collected,andwhich shelater
introducedinto the British folk clubs.and I
rememberalsoan earlyfestivalwhen Tom
Ifinesled the assembledsingersin another
songI'd found:'The PoorLittle Girls of
Ontario.' I alsoenjoyedsomesingerswhose
own songswere strongly influencedby
badition: Tom Paxton,StanRogers,and my
friendVeraJohnsonwhose'Housewife's
Lament'I considerthe bestmodernsong
usinga folk pattern.
AnotheraspectI liked wasthe emphasison
crafts.One year I was delighted to Iind that
Bill Reid,now famousfor his carvingsand
sculptures,wasthere illustratinghis
handicrafts.I had knownhim wellwhen he
workedfor the CBCandwasthe first
announceron my Folk SongTime
prosramme. I usedto drive down to the
Newport Festivalwhere I got to know more
singers.I rememberparticularlythe year
PeteSeegerbroughtO.J. Abbottto Newport
andaccompanied
him as he sangThe
Barley Grain for Me. ' I was there the year
Bob Dylanbroughtin electronicequipment
andsawPeteSeeger'sdismayat what he felt
wasa betrayalof folk music.Another
memoryis of TheodoreBikel,the most
thoroughlyinbernational
singerI know.Theo
got me into the areaclosedto all except
singersand their relativesby claiming me as
a cousin,and henceforthaddressedme as
CousinEdith.British folk festivalsare much
more to my tastethananyon this continenl
The LoughboroughFestival,arrangedby
the EnglishFolk Danceand SongSociety,
wasbeautifullytraditional.At it, in various
years, I heard the Stewartsof Blairgowrie,
Margaret Barry, DavyStewart,FredJordan,
PackieByrne,the Watersons,
Johnny
Doughty,RayFisher,and hostsofother fine
haditionalsingers.I alsoheardmanygood
revivalsingerslike Martin Carthy,Nic
Jones,and Bob Davenport,and satin on
workshopsby EwanMcColl,Bert Lloyd,and
StanHqill. IwasdefuhtedwhenTom
Gilfellonof the High LevelRanterssangMr.
Abbott'sThe Plainsof Waterloo'hisrecord
of it had beenchosenasthe bestfolksong
recordof thatyear.Anotherhighlightwas
FrankieArmsbong singing peggy Seegerrs
'l'm
GonnaBe an Engineer,'my favoriteof all
the feministsongs.It wastherethat I met
MikeYates,nowa dearfriendwithwhom I
stayon my visitsto Britain.Mike, a [ondon
detective,has an amazingknowledgeof folk
1
i
i
songsand has mademanyrecordsofsongs
he hascollected.
More recently I've gone down to a beautifi.rl
seasidevillage in Cornwall for the Sidmouth
InternationalFestival,a hugeweek long
celebrationwhich feahred many great
traditional singersand storytellers. I had not
previouslyheardDuncanWilliamsonwho
hasa remarkablefund of talesand ballads.I
wasamusedat the first sessionwhen he
cameand sang'CaptainWedderburn's
Courtship'directlyto me probablybecause
he recognizedmy enthusiasmfor his songs.
Other outstandingsingersI got to know
there were Betty and DaveCampbell,
parentsof the more famousAIex Campbell,
who were lovely traditional singers.I
rememberalsoa noonsing-aroundin a pub
when an lrish singer sang Mr. Abbott's very
Irish songaboutDanielO'Connellwhich he
hadgot fom someonewho learnedit from
Mr. Abboft s record. I've also pilgrimaged
severaltimes to the tiny village of
Auchternuchty in Scotland.Theirs is a small
festivalbut amazinglyrich in traditional
singrng,storytelling,dancing,andplaying.
The lirst time I went there I shareda bus
from Edinburghwith Willie Scott,the
famousshepherdsinger,then 84,who died
recently.[ast year I was delighted to find
HamishHenderson'sgreat'FreedomCome
All Ye,'which I considerthe finest songof
this century, haspractically becomethe
Scottishnationalanthemit wassungat least
half a dozentimesthat weekend,andit
closedthe festival,with all the singersand
the audiencejoining
in. I rememberwith'
pleasurethe celidhat DuncanWilliamson's
homewhen I persuadedHamishto sing it
for me,and alsohis The D-DayDodgers,'
the best songto come out of World War IL
Those were two great festivalsand I hopeto
getback !o them again.

fJ stelle Klein wasa key figure in the
l] tvtariposaFolk Foundationuntil
1980.For most of thattime shewas
Artistic Director of the festivaland the
foundation'sother public activities.
This meanta closeassociationin the
developmentof Mariposas school
programmesaswell asits workshop and
concef,t activities.Adminisfation was
alwaysa part of her Mariposalife- she
did not feel that one could or should
separateartistic concernsfrom the daytoday operationsof the organization.
Her leadershiprole helpedto direct and
form what is currently a highly
respectedmusicalorganizationwhich
sponsorsperformancesthroughout the
year.The annualFestivalgrew
creativelyunder her direction.Mariposa
programmeand format innovations
playeda significantrole in the
developmentof other such gatherings
throughout North America.
The following is an amalgamof Sandy
Moffrfs conversationwith Estelle
Klein and excerpts from pasturifien
and taped material. It includes her
uritten respons€ to Sandy'squestions.

Estellereread the'Notes'and
remembersher reactionat the time.

grateful for the recognition of years of

'The
existenceof an
hard work.
thatwould continueto emanatefrom
otherswas a hopeful rosy assessment
but I doubted its longevityevenif it did
exist.I thought it wascommoncourtesy
and commonsense.Thesearenot
necessarilyuniversaltraits."
MARIP0SA:What promptssomeoneto
be an artistic director?
ESTEIIE: I can only speakof my own
e:cperiencealthough one could saya
certaindegreeof madnessis common
to the species.There was no conscious
plan.An early passiveinterest in folk
grew to involvementin organizingfolk
eventsand activitiesprior to Mariposa
through workshopplannhg and coordi.
nation in its earb years,to acceptanceof
the role in 1964.By then I was
captivatedby the ideaof sharing with
audiencesthe broadworld that is folk.
RecentlyMariposa'sfounder,Ruth
JonesMcVeigh,expressedher concern
ofthe fact that I had broadened
Mariposafrom a sbictb Canadian
festival.This surprised me hcause
early festivalswere limited in sizeand
scopefor what I perceivedto be losical
reasonsand it was after all, a beginning'
Although therewas definitelya
Canadianflavour,the truth is that a
significant numhr of songsheard were
of Americanor other oricin - thafswhat
mostpopularCanadianperformersdid
at the time. Had it been a festivalof only
Canadiantraditionalperfomersor one
derotedto totallyCanadianmaterial,I
would have looked at it differently.You
can term these artistic judgements,I
suppose.That meansyou take the
responsibility for your actions- flak as
well as compliments.The short answer
to your questionis that becomingan
artistic director gives one the power to
shapean eventusing ideasto the best of
one'sability from conceptualizationto

hiring people.It can bevery satisfuing.

MARIPOSA:
M: Speakinsof ideas,how did the
festivalformat develop?You are
probably,most responsiblefor
establishingthe Mariposaformal
E: The presentformat is not the one
I worked with in my last artistic
direction for Mariposa. I believe,what
exists now is a rerrcrsionto earlier
festivalsand it appearsto be similar to
many other current festivals.That is, the
emphasisis on eveningconcertswith
some daytime activities looselytermed
workshops. In 1969,the MariposaBoard
approvedthe ideaof a daytimefestiyal
(there had only been eveningconcents
previousto that year). This was
generallythought to be a reaction to
crowdproblemsat the'68 festival.
Perhapsthesewere a higgering fictor
for me butthere were other significant
reasons.It seemedsomehowin keeping
with folk'to allow more interactionwith
the audiencethan was possibleat
eveningconcerts where distanceand
lights are a barrier.
I liked the idea of performers achrally
seeingtheir audienceand the audience
being closer to the various stqges.Far
broader programming possibilitieso<ist
when you can put different types of
peopletogether to relate in a more
human fashion.The interaction that
results from combinationsof different
ages,cultures, music:l styles and
personalities,remainsvery o<citing to
me. I believeit is possibleto educate,
evenif subliminally,by o<posingpeople
to all of these differences.It is my small
standagainstthe world of homo
genizationand market-driven'culture'.
Evening concerts can be exciting and
they also have a place (and here they
are back at Mariposa) but they remain
the leastchalleruing of programme
possibilitiesfor me. I am not
comfortablewith the frequent
stratificationof good but lesser known
performers, which is dictated by the
needsof the large night concert format.

June29 -Julyt
fl n overhearingmy friends at Mariposa
lJ callgoodfolk musicthe musicof the
people",I tho4ht the sameholds kue of
good festivals- they are celebrationsof
the people.
Throughout Ontario, all summer long,
indeedallyear round,tlere are hundredsof
wonderfrrlcommunity-basedfestivalsthat
celebratethe very essenceoftheir
communitiesthrough music, dance,theatre,
humour,spectacles,sports and participation.
Sometimesfestivalsreflect geographic
communities,like Guelph'sSpring Festivalor
a communityof peoplewho share a common
passion- like Mariposa- and folk music.
Many times there are combinationsof
geoeraphyand specialinterests like
Windsor'sInternational Freedom Festival
which celebratesWindsor and their
friendshipwith their neighbouring people in
Detroit or like my Orillia, with its Ieacock
HeritageFestivalwhich celebratesthe
history of Orillia and the literature and
humourof StephenIeacock Certainly there
is a communityof peoplewho love I-eacock
Wealso havecelebrationsof the .
environment,of sports,ofrecreationand
leisure,of culture and ethnic origins and
celebrationsfor a host of other reasonswe
concoctso we can havea good time together,
bondingas a community.
The measureof successof festivalslike
Mariposaand the some 1500community
celebrationswe haveacrossOntario, is not
the sizeof the crowd (although we all need
you to come),nor is it the moneythat was
or was not made (althoughwe all need
moneyto run), nor is it the headlinesand
recognitionthe festival deserves.The
measureof successis whether the festival
belongsto the audience,to the participants,
to the volunleers and to all the organizerswhether it is a Festivalof the People.
Mariposahas beena festival of the people
for 30yearsthanks to the specialpeopleto
whom it belongs.May it be so for another
0
130years.
