ABOUT

On January 10, 2010, Canada lost a beloved singer-songwriter, Kate McGarrigle, when she succumbed to her battle with cancer at the age of 63. Following all-star tributes in London and New York, friends and family of Kate McGarrigle gathered in Toronto to celebrate Kate's life and work, as part of Toronto's 2012 Luminato Festival.

Kate's sisters, Anna and Jane, her children, Rufus and Martha Wainwright, her niece and nephew, Lily and Sylvan Lanken, and Anna's husband, Dane Lanken were joined on stage by Emmylou Harris, Bruce Cockburn, Ron Sexsmith, Jane Siberry, Robert Charlesbois, Peggy Seeger, Mary Margaret O'Hara, Kevin Drew, Amy Millan, Ariel Engle, Andrew Whiteman, Teddy Thompson, Krystle Warren and were backed by musicians who formerly played with Kate.

CBC Music was proud to be a part of this event in order to share the stories and music of Kate McGarrigle.

So good to see this here now. I was at the show and have been raving to friends and family about just how good it was. Now I can annoy them even more by sharing the link with them! Thanks, CBC, for recording this. I'd love to see it available as an album we could buy and keep.

Thanks! Merci!

Just discovered this concert. I Cried for Us touched my heart and reminded me our own fight with cancer and the loss of a good friend, mother, grandmother. Thank you Kate for writing this tune. (I'd buy this recording as well)

I had the immense pleasure of attending this concert; such a beautifull, intimate vibe in the room. I heard the rebroadcast of the concert which contained several songs missing here (incl. Mary Margaret O'Hara). Could the songs missing here from the broadcast be added to this space as well? Lovely to be able to back and revisit this magical evenings performances.

@freecloud All of the songs (except one which is being buggy) from the broadcast are now available. I hope to get that last song up soon!
