輕率 - 17世紀愛爾蘭 & 蘇格蘭音樂 / 好奇的遊唱詩人樂團

作曲: O'Carolan, Turlough
樂團: The Curious Bards

Following on their impressive debut album [Ex]tradition, the Curious Bards—an early-music ensemble founded by violinist Alix Boivert in 2015—continue to explore material from the Scottish and Irish folk traditions preserved in 18th-century publications. This new collection of airs and dances is a chance to discover more of this fascinating repertoire, in which the distinctions between serious music and popular inspiration need no longer apply.
