Perhaps Brittany's most well-known Celtic artist, guitarist Dan Ar Braz completes the trilogy of his ambitious mid-'90s undertakings. Finisterres is another gathering of the most talented Celtic musicians performing today: Donal Lunny, John McSherry, Sharon Shannon, Noel Bridgeman, and Carlos Nunez, with vocals from Karen Matheson (Capercaillie) and Elaine Morgan (Rose Among Thorns). This recording brings together the traditional music of Ireland and Brittany in a contemporary framework in which no instrument is overlooked; harp, pipes, accordion, fiddle, and guitar are all given their due. The two additional Ar Braz albums on Columbia France, Heritage des Celtes and En Concert, run along similar lines. ~ Dave Sleger

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars The Best of the 1990's
This is outright the best recording I heard in the decade of the 1990's. Celtic music in contemporary arrangement done by the lead instrumentalists and vocalists of various great bands...all coming together under the "L'Heritage Des Celtes" umbrella. Just astounding material and wonderful execution. I could not recommend this more highly.

3 stars Impassably Superb
A remarkable recording by what can be termed a "celtic music supergroup" brought together occasionally by the great Breton guitarist/composer Dan Ar Braz. This is non-traditional folk music (purists beware!) but if you are a bit adventurous, a must buy. I have yet to play this for musically inclined friends where they haven't immediately written it down for subsequent purchase.
With the new interest in celtic music, I can not understand why this hasn't been released in the US (it has sold over a million in Europe).

A Night in Italy might really have been more accurately titled One Night 40 Years Ago in Italy. The most recent track is from 1973, and most are from the 1950s and 1960s. On the relatively sedate and charming "'A Tazza 'e Caffe" (1956), Nicola Arigliano comes across something like an Italian fadisto with a mandolin; Ferruccio Tagliavini's "Non Ti Scordar di Me" features a gorgeous accompaniment conducted (and, one suspects, arranged) by the genius Ennio Morricone; and there's simply no arguing with the charms of Domenico Modugno's "Volare." But low points include Vittorio de Sica's unforgivably moist "Munasterio 'e Santa Chiara" and Nini Rosso's rather creepy "La Ballata della Tromba." Sophia Loren does acquit herself quite nicely on "Che M'e 'Mparato a Ffa," though. This disc might make ...

With help from musicians associated with the era and location (including Don Tosti, Lalo Guerrero, and Thee Midnighters' Little Willie G.) and studio musicians Jim Keltner, Jon Hassell, and legendary Tex-Mex accordionist Flaco Jimenez, Cooder has created a musical novel that richly celebrates the music, life, and lingering mythos of Chavez Ravine, an L.A. neighborhood razed by the city in the interest of big business (namely to build a stadium for the soon-to-be L.A. Dodgers). Stylistically, the album, performed in both Spanish and English, ...

Pink Martini follow the around-the-world-in-a-dozen-songs thrills of HEY EUGENE! with SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, a mellower, simpler set of small pleasures. These are relative terms, however; the group's music is still well-traveled, with China Forbes singing in five languages ...

Born in Quebec of a Breton father and a mother of Italian descent, Serge is, from childhood, steep in a multicultural world. He discovers classical, Russian, gipsy, French and jazz music. Drawn to everything that is artistic, his first attempts are at painting, sculpting and writing plays for theaters.All art forms interest and fascinate him. He searches for all things different, his perspective is simple and spontaneous. He moves from one medium to another with ease and enthusiasm.Like all young musicians, he forms a progressive folk music band, and as all young bands, its existence is short lived. He will however perform at live shows. This experience confirms Serge’s own vision of music and so, he decides to pursue solo his musical evolution.Improvisation is the open door to his beloved piano. A period of ephemeral compositions begins. Everything has to appear instantaneously, at that moment, and suddenly disappear. During this time, Serge will develop further ...
