- Kate and Anna McGarrigle "with family and friends" perform at the Mariposa Festival in Barrie, Ontario, June 23rd, 1989.
Performing with Kate and Anna are their sister Jane McGarrigle, Anna's husband Dane Lanken, Kate's children Rufus Wainwright (16) and Martha Wainwright (13), Anna's and Dane's children Sylvan Lanken (11) and Lily Lanken (10), Joel Zifkin, Chaim Tannenbaum, and Danny Greenspoon.
The source for this clip is of poor quality (VHS EP, linear audio) but it's great to have nevertheless. A friend caught this by chance when flipping channels one day many years ago, threw a tape into the VCR, and recorded it for me.
It's only a fragment but it's a delight. All Stephen Foster songs. First is the ending of "Ah! May the Red Rose Live Alway" featuring Rufus on trumpet and Martha singing lead vocal. This is followed by a version of "Hard Times Come Again No More" in which the kids sing most of the vocals (Rufus singing lead). Then "Gentle Annie" with Kate on piano and Kate and Anna singing. Finally Dane leads a version of "Oh Susannah" with everyone else singing along on the choruses.
I am watching this from a COVID weary Scotland in 2021. This is not my first watch , love it.
Please never take this down! This is amazing!!!! This is what I love about the Wainwrights/McGarrigles...we always see them performing together as a family....i'm heartbroken that one of them has passed away
jeeez...Rufus W performing as a under 15 teenager..plus, how Godly his mother and aunt were musically schooled by the most gifted and giving nuns during their school days!!
I was there... it was the most awesome weekend of music celebration
This video is priceless! Thank you for sharing it with us and thank your friend for recording it! I didn't know Rufus could play the trumpet either!
Thanks for this great video showing Kate once's more amongst her family and friends. Impressive on a day of mourning.
My God this is the best thing I have seen in a long time.........Thank you for posting
Oh so beautiful! This is truly a treasure. Thank you!
This is a treasure. Audio is lo fi but clean.
Thanks for sharing this treasure.
Aaaahhhhhhhhhh. ''real music''......
Happy Birthday Kate! RIP!
Casi al completo una de las grandes familias musicales una delicia.....
Cool ! Thanks !
Unless parents can play an instrument, passing down their musical heritage to their children like this is well nigh impossible! Without Frank none of this could've happened!
Now this is Roots Music.
Very cool - thanks :)
Thank you!
Awesome!
Full of Joy and Happiness!
If I'm not mistaken this was actually when Mariposa was back on Toronto Island. Wonderful memory.
Mariposa was up in Barrie that year.
