Tradition and innovation go hand in hand on Ivers's surprising, fresh, and impeccably played solo recording. ~ Steve Winick
Eileen Ivers, on her debut album, Eileen Ivers, shows remarkable inventiveness while still standing on the firm ground of traditional Irish music. From folk to rock and Ireland to Africa, Ivers spices up contemporary, traditional and original tunes with guitar, saxophone, zither, viola da gumba and hammond organ. This is serious fun. The beautiful tune "Nagh Seola" becomes a jazz ballad duet. On "Pachelbel's Frolics," Ivers deconstructs this classical piece into a driving hoedown. A more talented, adventurous musician on the Irish music scene would be hard to find. ~ MusD

Eileen Ivers Music Review Purchase Eileen Ivers CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Erik Friedlander Quake CD (2003)
Eileen Ivers
 $14.59 
On Quake, downtown cello boss Erik Friedlander teams up with Japan's fraternal rhythm section the Takeishi brothers (Stomu and Satoshi on bass and drums, respectively) as well as alto saxophonist Andy Laster for a date of intimate, knotty new jazz. In working with an electric bassist in this setting, the opportunities for unique tonalities are everywhere and are exploited to some degree as they were on an earlier work, The Watchman. Over the years, however, Friedlander has become a composer of interesting ensembles and Quake's is no exception. What is so remarkable about the performances on this recording are details such as counterpoint; on the opener, Laster and Stomu have equal opportunities to engage Friedlander and each other for a knotty, but exhilarating, ride. On the erratically paced and wonderfully breathless "Wire," Friedlander brings shades of different jazz eras and styles to comprise the body of the composition while intense harmonic invention takes places in each musician's solo. The ...
| | Paul Brody Beyond Babylon CD (2004)
Eileen Ivers
$13.39 
On his second album fronting his band Sadawi, trumpeter and composer Paul Brody continues his work in the avant-klezmer trenches, helping to drag that hundred-year-old music kicking and screaming into the 21st century. On Beyond Babylon he shows his unwillingness to be constrained by any ghetto boundaries, opening the album with an extended deconstruction of the Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts" (which features a hair-raisingly skronky banjo solo by Brandon Seabrook), and making use of elements of both dub (on the contemplative and lovely "Timepeace"), and rock (note the guitar parts on "Fragment of Kafka's Friend") as well as lots and lots of modern jazz. Most of the album is thrilling; Brody's take on the David Krakauer ...
| | Kagemusha DVDs (1980) Widescreen; Special Edition; Subtitled
Eileen Ivers
 $31.25
In this dazzling epic from Akira Kurosawa, a petty thief named Kagemusha (Tatsuya Nakadai) gets saved from a death sentence because he resembles the warlord Shingen Takeda (also Nakadai). The warlord has been fighting two other leaders for control of 16th-century Japan and impersonators often take his place during battles to put him out of harm's way. Because of Kagemusha's strong physical similarities to the warlord, he's a perfect choice for a "shadow warrior." However, the arrangement suddenly changes when Shingen gets fatally wounded while watching a battle. Adhering to Shingen's final wish, the warlord's men keep the death a secret, and Kagemusha struggles ...

Eileen Ivers

Russian master Aleksandr Sokurov (THE SUN, RUSSIAN ARK, MOTHER AND SON) has produced another majestic achievement with ALEXANDRA. In a rare instance of working from his own original script, Sokurov tells the simple tale of a woman in the twilight of her life who embarks on a special journey. As the story unfolds, Sokurov's deeper purpose is revealed, resulting in a work that speaks profoundly about the corrosive nature of war. Opera star Galina Vishnevskaya is Alexandra. She hasn't seen her grandson in seven years and, understanding that her life is coming to an end, she decides ...
| | Celtic Christmas III CD (1997)
Eileen Ivers
$6.09
From the opening track's mournful oboe, cor anglais and uillean pipes it's obvious this will be an excursion into a Celtic evening. But what starts out engaging enough, with David Arkenstone's artful blending of synthesizer and pennywhistle to the vocals of Triona Ni Dhmohnaill and Lisa Lunne's Celtic harp, soon turns dark. The tunes conjure images of the season, mournful ones for the most part, such as James McNally's "Black is the Colour" and Patrick Cassidy's concluding "Lament," though Paddy Glackin and Micheal O Domhnaill's "The South Wind" and Brian Dunning and Jeff Johnson's "A Raven in the Snow" lighten it somewhat. Still, no matter how well it's played or how soulful it is, it's pretty depressing for Christmas music. ~ Ross Boissoneau

Eileen Ivers
$14.69
Internationally acclaimed singer, musician, storyteller, bard, Danny O'Flaherty's infectious performance captivates audiences worldwide."Unfiltered and heartfelt, Danny o'Flaherty's music is the product of an intensely personal enthusiasm that makes his work dramatically different" Brian MacQuarrie, Boston Sunday GlobeThis irrepressible Irish musical wizard has an astonishing knack for teasing reluctant audiences with a twinkling roguery and bewitching city sophisticates into following him down a country glen, or letting the salt air from Galway Bay cleanse the spirit as it washes over the cliffs. Danny O'Flaherty's appeal is universal; his music evokes the rich tradition of the past seamlessly woven into haunting contemporary ballads. "Ireland is my love. It's where I am when I am singing; Folk music is the music of the people. I love it. I breath it. It's the music that tells you the truth."Danny O'Flaherty has traveled far from his boyhood home in Gaelic speaking Connnemara, in western Ireland, to the French Quarter of New Orleans, home-base of O'Flaherty's Irish Channel Pub. There have been numerous stops along the way: a five week tour of Israel culminating in a private command performance with President Herzog; singing with folk singer Pete Seeger to an audience of half a million from the steps of the U.S. Capital on Solidarity Day; the opening concert for the Pan Celtic Festival in Ireland; a performance at the National Cathedral for Pope John Paul II's visit to the United States, headliner for the Celtic Nations Heritage Fesiival of Louisiana, ...
