Robert Macdonald came on the show back in January of 2024. We talked, then, mostly about his music making with Pennyland.
We talked a bit about his scholarly work on the compositions of fiddler John MacDougall, though, and ever since I've been wanting to dig a bit more into that.
This episode is an, "audiobook," you might say, of what Robert wrote about John MacDougall's work after spending time with him in Cape Breton in 2009.
Tune into this episode to hear an abrupt (but hopefully pleasant) change in sound quality.
