“...blithesome, bewitching and incandescent. . .”
“Every listener will find a favorite bit, a familiar piece crafted with an instrument you likely haven't heard explored in this way before.”
“This disc puts the depth of the flute's capabilities on display. . .”
Nicole Rabata's debut CD 'Armorica' features a compelling blend of traditional music from Ireland, French Canada, Brittany and Scandinavia combined with original compositions on the wooden flute. The album features a dramatic contrast of textures and arrangements, from upbeat dance tunes and rich harmonies to evocative melodies. Nicole is joined by a stellar lineup of instrumentalists on each track.
Featured on the album are Seamus Connolly and Ellery Klein, (fiddle), Natalie Haas (cello), David Surette (guitar & cittern), Matt Shipman (guitar) Chris Stevens (accordion and concertina), Owen Marshall (bouzouki, guitar & harmonium) and Danielle Langord (harp).
