Here you go: link, music, and dancing. (If the people couldn't dance, they'd find some other musicians.) Fiddler Natalie is a local girl; banjoist and singer were her guests on an album. You might recognize them. youtube.com/watch?v=daq8YZsl…

He's having a good time, isn't he? Tradition in Cape Breton fiddling is a piano (that's Mac Morin) as a kind of continuo. I really like how they wove "Pokarekare Ana" into a set of traditional Cape Breton tunes.

And here's a different performance, still in the same genre: Natalie's uncle, the late Buddy MacMaster. If I recall he was around 80 in this. youtube.com/watch?v=ny2beJky…
