by
Sileas
Harps have been a part of Celtic music for over 1,000 years. Ireland has been famous for its harpists (one of the best known was Turlough O'Carolan), as has Scotland. Two Scottish harp players/vocalists who have been doing their part to keep Scottish/Celtic harp playing vital and fresh are Mary Macmaster and Patsy Seadon, who comprise the duo, ...

The Road of Tears

by
The Battlefield Band
Just because the Battlefield Band has been going for over 30 years doesn't mean they've run out of things to say. On the basis of Road of Tears, they remain quite thought-provoking. If not exactly a concept album, it's certainly a thematic record, around the idea of emigration and populations on the move (for many reasons). That's a perennial ...

The Tannahill Weavers
Fans of the Tannahill Weavers know just what to expect, and they get it here: an opening set of swirling pipe tunes to get your heart racing, then an achingly gorgeous vocal tune filled with historical regret and couched in intricate harmonies. Then more of the same: a set of swirling flute tunes (the wonderful "One for the Road Set") followed by ...

Epona

by
The Tannahill Weavers
No great departure here from the Tannies' usual fare: lovely and expertly arranged sets of jigs and reels alternating with traditional Scottish songs, equally well-arranged and often featuring startlingly dense and tight vocal harmonies. Epona gets off to a rather slow start, with the weak and sludgy "Interceltic Set." But the gorgeous harmony ...

Premiére: Music from Brittany

by
Kornog
Maybe you don't think of France as a hotbed of Celtic culture. And for the most part, you're right. But Brittany, a region in the west of France, is actually home to an entire Celtic subculture with its own very ancient language and a musical tradition that comes partly from eastern Europe and partly from the same sources as the Gaelic music of ...

Home Is Where the Van Is marked the Battlefield Band's U.S. debut and continued the Scottish group's affinity for blending modern instrumentation into the country's folk tradition. "Look Across the Water/Mrs Garden of Troup/The Keelman Ower Land" was as traditional a reel as you could get, accept for the fact that its main melody came courtesy of ...

Sail On

by
Dick Gaughan
While not the best album in Gaughan's impressive canon, Sail On is testament to the fact that he sounds best in a stripped-down setting. Unfortunately, it proves the point by a number of over-arranged pieces, like "Land of the North Wind" and "Son of Man," which utilize a band, it seems, just because they can, diluting the power of the songs. He's ...

This album offers quite an education in pipe playing. Not only does it show that there's a whole generation of talented and imaginative pipers in Scotland, it shows that they each have their own distinctive styles -- a fact that might come as a surprise to those who think of the pipes as a noise. In fact, there's a lot of subtlety in the playing, ...

Cape Breton fiddler Buddy MacMaster is not as famous in the lower half of North America as his hotshot niece Natalie, but for those who prefer the undiluted, hardcore traditional music of Cape Breton, this recording will feel more like the real thing than Natalie MacMaster's more modern excursions. Buddy MacMaster's style is cleaner and perhaps ...
