Music reviews of Scottish Fire
Music Review: Fantastic Way Cool Fiddler
Rating: 5 Stars
I just heard this fantastically cool album. I'm a Fiddler and I wish I could play like Bonnie Rideout. On the first track of this recording, Bonnie Rideout starts out with a really cool strathspey and she slowlly heats up into an awesome fast reel.Like all of her previous albums, she kept me interested untill the very last track, which is always her best. On this album she ends with another solo fiddle track that I can't wait to learn.
If anyone is ever into THE REAL THING, they should get this CD......for sure!!!!!
Description of Scottish Fire
With Scottish Fire, the shining star and internationally renowned leading female Scottish fiddler, Bonnie Rideout sets the standard for the millennium. Praised as "one of the world?s leading Scottish fiddlers." (Bob Edwards. NPR?s "Morning Edition"). Bonnie?s fiddling of airs, strathspeys, jigs and reels ignites the fire and passion of Scotland in her breathtaking new release. From the driving opening track "Grant?s Rant" to the soulful Gaelic air "An Gillie Donn," Rideout dazzles the listener with her sense of passion, pensive longing, vital beauty and poignancy. She is joined by some of the finest Celtic musicians performing today on Highland pipes and drums, guitar, cittern and viola da gamba. Musicians:BONNIE RIDEOUT Fiddle & Viola;JERRY O'SULLIVAN- Uilleann Pipes & Scottish Small-pipes;MIKE GREEN - Great Highland Pipes;AL PETTEWAY -Guitar;ROBIN BULLOCK - Guitar & Cittern;MAGGIE SANSONE- Hammered Dulcimer;TINA CHANCEY - Viola da Gamba;PADDY LEAGUE - Bodhran, Snare, Udu & Djembe;JON QUIGG - Snare & Bass Drums.Bonnie Rideout is an American who has mastered the art of Scottish fiddling. Scottish Fire is a selection of tunes that cover almost the entire range of traditional Caledonian music. There are marches, complete with bagpipes and drums, dance tunes of every variety, including reels, strathspeys, waltzes, hornpipes, and slow airs. Rideout plays them all with equal facility but she really shines on the unaccompanied slow selections like the heartbreaking "Lude's Lament." The instrumentation includes the now standard guitar, cittern, and bodhrán, as well as the more unusual viola da gamba. As on her previous releases such as Soft May Morn and Celtic Circles, Rideout has unearthed tunes from old manuscript collections in Scotland. Many of these melodies haven't been heard for centuries and Rideout has done us all a favor by bringing them back to life. --Michael Simmons
