Angels
and Devils was
recorded live to three dimensional
stereo - in a single stream
- and in a single evening,
by guitarist Andrew
White. This is an
intense journey through original
music that can only be described
as ‘orchestral ragtime’.
With an otherworldly stereo
image and sublime ambience,
the sound is like having
a private guitar performance – in
your living room.
At
The Market is
a tribute to the sound
of the classic double-fiddle
records of the Irish tradition.
PEI's Kim Vincent and Cape
Breton Irish fiddler Dan
MacDonald team up here
for a snapshot of the repertoire
developed at the St. Lawrence
Market, in downtown Toronto.
Two exceptional violins
are recorded in a blend
so natural – at times
they conjure up the sound
of Irish pipes.
Over
The Cabot Trail captures
the rich brogue of
Cape Breton fiddler Morgan
MacQuarrie,
accompanied by Gordon
MacLean on
piano. Recorded by
Mark Wilson at Gordon's
home in Cape Breton,
the sessions were recently
re-mastered for Rounder
Record’s
North American Tradition
Series.
The
Piper & The
Maker,
Volume
II

This
exotic
collection
of

and
timbres
were
recorded
in
shimmering
clarity
at
the

Celtic
Colours
Festival.
The spirit of
the
piper
Alex
Currie
was
alive
that
afternoon
in
the
riveting
performances
fromthe
vanguard
of
contemporary
piping.
