This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The story of a cultural touchstone and its impact Fiddlers, step dancers, storytellers, traditional singers, and folklorists staged Montreal's first veillée in 1919. All that was missing, announced one of the organizers, was a magic carpet to transport the audience into the countryside and a kiss of forgetfulness to erase the woes of modern life. Laura Risk tells the story of the veillées and explores how these commercial performances of idealized rural life became part of Quebec's cultural heritage. Her in-depth examinations of key performances and recordings follow traditional music and dance from the stage onto radio, records and other audio media, and television.
