This program is the Canadian edition of the Music Round the World series. This episode represents songs from five groups present in the patchwork of folklore neighbourhoods present in Canadian history: The Iroquois (or Haudenosaunee) peoples, French-Canadian, English, Scottish Gaelic, and Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast. This program includes an Iroquois rain dance song (recorded by the National Film Board of Canada (NFBC)); an Iroquois song called False Faces (recorded by the NFBC); and a gambling song of the Indigenous peoples of the Northwest Coast sung during a Lahal game (collected by Mungo Park). Next, the program includes a song that originated in the Hebrides north of Scotland about shrinking homespun cloth, known in the Hebrides as Walking the Cloth and known in Canada as A Milling Frolic; a Cape Breton version of a Scottish Reel (recorded by Ken Peacock); a clip from a French-Canadian song where a fiddler calls figures in a dance; a French-Canadian lumberjack composition from the 1830s; a northeastern Quebecois jig; a Newfoundland version of a rare Scots Ballad called The Bonnie Banks of Fordie, known in Canada as The Banks of the Vergie-O; and a Newfoundland rhythm for fishermen's dances called The Fella from Fortune. The recordings were drawn from part of the Columbia World Library of Folk and Primitive Music prepared by Alan Lomax and from the National Museum of Canada. Dr. Marius Barbeau edited the Canadian music in this collection. This program was distributed by the radio division of UNESCO in Paris with commentary by Keith Wood
