		<title>Mélodie de la semaine pour les Mai 14, 2012</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How &#8217;bout a Cajun waltz? Varise Conner (1906-1994) should be better known than he is. He quit playing for dances in the 1930s in favor of more intimate sessions with friends, like Lionel Leleux. The first album dedicated to his music was not issued until ten years after his death. And what a dandy it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gran Baile (Big Dance ) this Friday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Square your sets! NB Text on this eCard is misleading. It&#8217;s all square dancing all night long! Every dance will be taught. Dancing starts at 8:30 and runs till 11. (There is not a separate teaching half hour followed by a concert.) And the music will be fabulous, provided by Genevieve &#38; Smith Koester, who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tune of the Week for May 7, 2012 I got to dance to Wally Heppner when he represented the Ukrainian community of Alberta, Canada at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival on the Mall in Washington D.C. in 2006.

		<title>Tune of the Week for April 30, 2012</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tune histories are funny things, especially because different names are often given to the same tune, while, at other times, different tunes are given the same name. And often, some tunes seem to slip through the years without any name attached. Little Billy Wilson is a case in point. I think. Are we talking about [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tune of the Week for April 23, 2012</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When thinking of English folk music, most folks probably picture foremost a variety of squeeze boxes&#8211;concertinas and melodeons&#8211;and with good reason. But Merry Old England did enjoy a wealth of master fiddlers, and the influence of English fiddle traditions upon American old-time music proved just as strong as that of the more celebrated &#8220;Celtic&#8221; traditions [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tune of the Week for April 16, 2012</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a long story. Actually, two stories, for this Tune of the Week entry is in fact two separate tunes from two opposite sides of globe, two completely different peoples, and two separate, but intertwined, histories. In 1981&#8211;while living in Bloomington, Indiana&#8211;I was invited to a friend&#8217;s house for an intimate session of tunes and [...]]]></description>
