4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful trans-Atlantic Celtic fiddling
This is the fifth album by the Celtic supergroup-powerhouse, Celtic Fiddle Festival, featuring the combined talents of three fiddlers -- Kevin Burke, Christian Lemaitre and Andre Brunet -- and one guitarist, Ged Foley, in as fine a set of Celtic instrumentals as ever you shall hear.

3.0 out of 5 stars Equinoxe
Fine playing, but the group and the individual musicians are better seen at a live show than heard on a recording.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful trans-Atlantic Celtic fiddling, March 28, 2008
This review is from: Celtic Fiddle Festival - Équinoxe (Audio CD)
This is the fifth album by the Celtic supergroup-powerhouse, Celtic Fiddle Festival, featuring the combined talents of three fiddlers -- Kevin Burke, Christian Lemaitre and Andre Brunet -- and one guitarist, Ged Foley, in as fine a set of Celtic instrumentals as ever you shall hear.

Foley, also known for his work with the House Band, Battlefield Band and Patrick Street, anchors each tune with a lively, inventive style that is both supportive and restless, the sort of playing that can both fade into the background or leap out at you in the middle of a song and and make you realize, oh my goodness, is he really doing all that tricky stuff, too? Same with the fiddling: these are immensely accomplished musicians drawing on Breton, Irish and Canadian traditions, weaving it all together in a mix of tones and styles. There are keening, aggressive jigs alongside silken, melodic passages, all of it quite dazzling. If you like Celtic instrumentals, you'll love this album. (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Music Reviews)
