These two seasoned musicians offer a celebration of the very best of Cornish traditional music in all its varied glory, from wild and mesmerising dance tunes to beautifully haunting slower pieces. This includes instrumentals on bouzouki and clarinet, as well as songs in Cornish and in English.Neil Davey and Hilary Coleman are individually very well known to anyone familiar with Cornish traditional music having both played an integral part in the great revival of this genre seen over recent decades. They are probably best known for being the two original founding members of the internationally acclaimed pioneering Cornish music group Dalla, and also continue to play together in the hugely popular nos lowen dance band Skillywidden which grew out of Dalla.
‘Inventive and enchanting, their music celebrates Cornish culture in an upbeat and infectious voice’
(The Guardian)
'Rollicking sets of tunes... Some are given an almost klezmer feel by Hilary’s clarinet, some showcase Neil’s dazzling bouzouki playing.'
(fRoots)
‘
Pulsing dance tunes and songs in English and Cornish, creatively arranged and tastefully performed.’
(Dirty Linen - USA)
