The Jean Redpath Story, Folk Music at Adelaide’s, 9th October, 2015

Through photographs, video and some unique live recordings, this evening will be an opportunity to experience the magic of Jean Redpath.

This evening will be an exploration and celebration of the life and work of Jean Redpath. Although Jean spent much of her life in America, she was a significant figure in the early days of the folk revival in Scotland and was committed to teaching through her association with the Stirling University Summer Schools. John Cairney, who for many years was Robert Burns through his stage performances, knew Jean well and will add his own personal insight and tribute. 

One fabulous quote about Jean is worth repeating:

“To call Jean Redpath a Scottish folk singer is a bit like calling Michelangelo an Italian interior decorator.” (Silent Movies on the Radio)
