16 Apr 18 - 04:03 PM (#3917704) Subject: To Hear Your Banjo Play (Film Short) From: GUEST I have been watching with delight the film short (ca. 1947)"To Hear your Banjo Play" written by Alan Lomax, with Pete Seeger and other folk performers active during those post-war years. There were several figures whom I was unable to identify. (a) the singer of What Wondrous Love (starting at 6:21); (b) the two instrumentalists with Pete Seeger at 12:40, and (c) the square dance caller, probably a member of Margot Mayo’s American Square Dance Group (starting at 12:50). The film can be viewed at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2iOqctAtGU Was this made for the educational market? Any details about the production would also be appreciated. RM |
