专辑介绍

by James Christopher Monger

Canadian superstar fiddler and dancer Natalie MacMaster's tenth full-length recording doesn't deviate much from her usual formula, but considering the fact that her &usual formula& consists of filtering traditional Celtic music through the open-ended sieves of jazz, rock, country and Latin, the results are far from predictable. MacMaster is a peerless player, and here she starts things off with a fiery opener, the appropriately titled &Volcanic Jig,& which sets the tone for Yours Truly. Backed by a small army of instrumental masters, airs like &Farewell to Peter& and traditional sets such as &David's Jig: David's Jig/Valerie Pringles' Reel& are precise examples of contemporary Celtic music, but with the exception of a horrifying version of &Danny Boy& sung by Michael McDonald (seriously, you lose a whole star for that kind of thing), it's when MacMaster takes the genre out for a walk that things get really interesting. The jaunty &Flea as a Bird& throws a little country and ragtime into the mix, &Cape Classico& balances the rigidity of classical violin with the bright lilt of Irish fiddle, and the full-on Celtic rock of &Matt and Nat's& gives the collection some serious cajones.
