    IN Massachusetts, the native state of one of the most respected of the Cape Breton fiddlers, Jerry Holland, a mighty array of talent has been amassed for a benefit for the musician who was stricken with cancer earlier this year and is undergoing treatments currently. The illness left him unable to work in the normally very busy spring, summer and fall festival season, so a group of friends in the Celtic music scene have organized fundraising activities for him.

    On Sunday, September 9 there will be a massive concert to provide assistance and show some support to lift his spirits.

No less than eight new recordings for artists and groups and one book (containing a companion DVD) were celebrated for their contributions to the cause in the past year.

    At this juncture we would like to mention some of the CDs and the book/DVD that vividly capture the essence of what makes the CIAW tick and add so much to the week and the months that follow as the publications traveled away from the hamlet with the students and artists.
