Mississauga News
"Bowfire will catch the imagination of everyone partial to any kind of string instrument."
"..safe to say you couldn't get any more out of a fiddle or violin."
"The droll fiddle medleys capture the violin's whimsical qualities, while the down-tempo tracks capture its mysterious side."

Product Description
Here is the debut CD from an exciting ensemble of ten talented violinists and fiddlers, representing a wonderful array of genres and styles.
You'll hear: classical, jazz, country, rock, old-time, Texas-style, Bluegrass, Gypsy, Celtic and more. The music is both a showcase for the virtuosity of the musicians, and a tribute to the amazingly versatile, complex and lyrically romantic violin.
Their performances are "an evening of show-stopping hits strung together in glorious sequence... an awesome range of music. If it's violin or fiddle music you're after, you can't go wrong with Bowfire." - Robert Reid, Kitchener-Waterloo Record.

An instant favorite!,

This review is from: Bowfire (Audio CD)
This is a great CD which invokes wonderful memories of the show. My wife and I took our son last year and became fans. We saw Lara St. John perform recently and already have tickets for the next Bowfire show in our area 4 months in advance.
There's not a bad track on this CD. Don't miss track 14 "Galloping Horses" featuring George Gao on the Chinese urhu. It blew me away and became an instant all time favorite when I saw it performed . I play it all the time.

I saw them in concert and was blown away by them! A fantastic mix of different genres of music all played exceptionally well. Very catchy, upbeat songs that you will not tire of. If you get the opportunity to see them in concert - go -- the CD, although good, doesn't do them justice!!

Superb,

This review is from: Bowfire (Audio CD)
This CD is excellent. It is diverse. The Csarda is played by lara St. John, and she's phenomenal. Track 14 is a Chinese piece that uses the erhu. There are also great classical pieces, and fun fiddle tunes, all played superbly. This CD is a must.
