The Alehouse Sessions

Opis

The Alehouse SessionsOpis:Product Description'The Alehouse Sessions', curated and devised by Bjarte Eike, is an evolving insight into the music of the English 17th Century tavern. It shines light onto this tumultuous period through Purcell overtures, English sea shanties and Scandinavian folk songs, thrown in for good measure, brilliantly evoking the atmosphere of a raucous port pub in the 1690s. These sessions have already been hailed as 'irresistible' [The Times], 'superb' [The Scotsman] and 'fabulously unrestrained' by The Guardian, 'creating the effect of a late night jamming session', said BBC Music Magazine. 'The signature of this project is the interaction on stage between the players and the audience...drawing its inspiration from the Shakespearian theatre where there was a direct communication between stage and hall', says Bjarte Eike. 'The 'Alehouse Sessions' will be on tour throughout 2017.

Review'Music and drink: two things that make life worth living...

Barroksolistene have been working on this project for almost 10 years, and the performances had a wonderful sense of being thoroughly lived in. The variety of tone and texture was astonishing, ranging from very naughty folk-songs to delicate dance tunes with a modal tang, from as far afield as Shetland and Norway. The whole joyous evening was a liberation, carrying us back to a time when the terms 'classical' and 'folk' hadn t yet been invented, and music was simply music.' 5 Stars --The Daily Telegraph'it s what happens when you take a bunch of adventurous, improvising musicians from the folk and period instrument worlds, ply them with beer, and get them to sing and dance as well as play the kind of music that was around in early 17th century England when professional musicians were banned from theatres and resorted to impromptu sessions in the taverns instead ... it could be the most musical fun you have all week' --Andrew McGregor BBC Radio 3 Record Review, 18th June 2017Autor:Bjarte EikeNośnik:Audio CDPłyt:Język: German: Published; English: Original Language; EnglishData wydania: 2017-06-09Waga: 0.11 gramWysokość: 0.3 cmSzerokość: 4.9 cmDługość: 5.5 cmWallom greenCurtain tune (da Purcell)Oh!
