Review:
NEW! For winter 2004: an inspired musical celebration of the Winter season drawn from the roots of Canada's Maritime musical heritage. The Chris Norman Ensemble's lively arrangements with flutes, pipes, guitar, mandolin, mandola, harmonium, piano, bass, percussion, drums & vocals reach across centuries of traditional music combining an originality, intelligence, fun, and sheer mastery that range from virtuoso hornpipes, settings of 16th c. French Noels, a slide guitar setting of 17th c. English country dances, and four part singing from the group. Chris Norman's brilliant and imaginative flute playing takes center stage featuring exquisite duets with vocalist Suzie Leblanc. A rare musical message of good cheer — CalabashMusic.com |
