The Fiddle Burning Priest of Cape Breton Island

  • サマリー

  • The violin might be one of the most Canadian of musical instruments. In fact, there are a dozen different styles specific to Canada—styles like West Coast, Prairie, Ottawa Valley, Down East and the star of this episode, Cape Breton. Yet if one zealous priest had gotten his way, the distinctive Cape Breton sound wouldn't exist. Join me as we explore the legends and history of Reverend Kenneth J. MacDonald, the infamous Fiddle-Burning Priest of Cape Breton Island.

    Fireside Canada is a podcast about Canadian legends, lies and lore. Focused on both the storytelling and the historical aspects of folklore, each episode includes a creative retelling or story inspired by the folklore as well as an exploration and analysis of its history and cultural significance: the story behind the story. You can learn more at FiresideCanada.ca.
