Subject: [ARSCLIST] Identification of Folksingers and instrumentalists
I wonder whether any folk music devotees can identify several figures in the post-World War II short film *To Hear Your Banjo Play*. The film can be viewed on youtube at:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2iOqctAtGU
The figures whom I cannot identify are:
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).
Also, was this made for the educational market? Any details about the production would be appreciated.
Best wishes,
Richard Markowitz
