"All Join Hands" is the story of what happened when a 10,000 yr old musical tradition was put into the hands of a 17 yr old Boston boy in 1947. While in high school, Dudley Laufman apprenticed with fiddlers and callers throughout New England. Eventually, he squired the old country dance traditions through to their revival in the 1960s. Decades of performances in famous venues and small villages led to his receiving the National Heritage Fellowship Award in 2009.
