Sylvain Barou album

Post by SylvainBarou »

Hi Folks,

Apologizes in advance for this self-promoting post!
My new album which has been released in Brittany in April is now finally available for digital download at:

http://sylvainbarou.bandcamp.com

CD is available worldwide also by mail order on:
http://www.sylvainbarou.com
or

I have also uploaded a couple of full audio tracks as a preview instead of the 30sec audio samples.

Really hope you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it!!
I'm playing mostly D & Eflat flutes (Morvan) & pipes on it and the full lineup is:

Dónal LUNNY : bouzouki & bodhràn
Ronan PELLEN : cittern
Jacques PELLEN : 12 strings guitar
Keyvan CHEMIRANI : percussion
Julien STEVENIN : double bass
John DOYLE : guitar
Liz CAROLL : fiddle
Stelios PETRAKIS : lyra
Hamid Reza KHABBAZI : persian tar
Prabhu EDOUARD : tabla
Florian BARON : oud

Youenn LE BIHAN : bombarde
Alain GENTY : fretless bass
Rubén BADA : bouzouki
Ed BOYD : guitar

thanks a million and happy fluting!

Listening to "The Windy Set", my wife asked, "How does he do that? It sounds like he's never even taking a breath!" to which I replied, "Unlike me, he's really good." :)

well, he is a bit of an overachiever....

however, as long as he can keep it up,

I'll listen
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free
It's dizzying, the possibilities. Ashes, Ashes all fall down.

Speaking of the Windy Set, here it is:

Over the past couple of days I've learned to play the third tune "The Cocus Reel" which I believe is a Sylvain Barou original composition. Great tune!
