No strangers to tragedy, the Scottish and Irish peoples produce many of the world's saddest songs. Joined by some folk fiddle players, early music ensemble Hesperus examines the earliest material from these nations on Celtic Roots. You think it is a cello, but what you actually are hearing are a bass viola and gamba as this trio applies period instrumentation for an unusual "chamber Celtic" effect. ~ Tom Schulte

Live Recording

Recorded at St. John's Episcopal Church, Elliot City, Maryland. Includes liner notes by Scott Reiss.

Hesperus: Grant Herreid (guitar, lute, theorobo, recorder); Scott Reiss (hammered dulcimer, recorder, whistle); Tina Chancey (fiddle, treble & bass viola da gambas, recorder).

Additional personnel: William Taylor (gothic "bray" harp); Bonnie Rideout (Scottish fiddle); Philippe Varlet (Irish fiddle).

Dirty Linen (8-9/99, p.75) - "...If contemporary albums use parental advisory stickers to describe its contents, such a sticker would say only one thing: incredible."

Celtic Roots album
CD $7.49  Audio Samples
Pahayokee:A Plea for Life combines natural sounds with dramatic music and singing in a fervent call to save the Everglades. The Everglades are dying and Pahayokee asks us all to cry out to save the glades as the frogs, birds and insects call out their songs in their struggles to survive ever-increasing human encroachment and environmental degradation. A Plea for Life presents six songs which explore the relationship between the most elemental substance of all, water, and the life and death of the glades. Opera singer John Boehr sings about and with the sounds and rhythms of the glades. John's voice cries out like a red-shouldered hawk greeting a new dawn in the Pinelands after a lightning fire. The music of Jack Tamul creates a nature opera- a dynamic score that tells the true story of the future of the Everglades like the sounds of green tree frogs announcing a new mating season.
