Another family keeping its musical heritage alive, the Beaudoins of the Burlington area are the subject of this program. The large family of French-Canadian descent draws on many generations of fiddling, singing and step dancing. They show it off in a half hour of entertainment and reminiscences. Lovers of traditional music recall the work of master fiddler Louis Beaudoin, who died in 1980. Now, Louis' wife heads one performing branch of the family called The Julie Beaudoin Family that includes her daughters and grandchildren. Louis' brother Willie leads La Famille Beaudoin, which includes his wife and son, his brother Bob, and Val Dion.
