January 30 & 31, 2010

On A Propos this week, a fond farewell to Kate McGarrigle, who with her sister Anna, made up the folk duo known as the McGarrigle Sisters. Kate and Anna McGarrigle grew up in St-Saveur, north of Montreal, and they recorded in both English and French. Kate's song-writing was innovative, honest and genuine, and her songs were covered by a variety of artists, from Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris to Billy Bragg and Chloe Sainte-Marie. Jim will share some of his favourite songs by the McGarrigles, as well as music by Kate's son and daughter, Rufus and Martha Wainwright.

On this week's A Propos, host Jim Corcoran offers a blend of music, new and old : electro-pop from Quebec's La Patère Rose; the harmonies of Malicorne, France's answer to Steeleye Span in the 1970s; New Brunswick poet and singer-songwriter Fredric Gary Comeau; and a song by Richard Desjardins that had actress Jane Birkin longing to be the woman who inspired it.

On A Propos this weekend, a special show on Lhasa de Sela, the Montreal-based singer-songwriter who died earlier this month at the age of 37. Lhasa was known around the world for her songs in French, English and Spanish. Her album The Living Road was recently named one of the ten best world albums of the decade by the Times of London. Host Jim Corcoran offers his insights on the artist and his thoughts about Lhasa herself.
