Putumayo celebrates the season with a variety of Celtic artists playing the old standards plus a few you probably don’t know. Even if you hate Christmas music you might enjoy hearing a fresh take. Mostly instrumentals. *1. A sea-shanty sound for this sweet classic. Midtempo. 2. Flute, fiddle, an instrumental track w/an elegant melody. 3. An upbeat version for perc, strings, instrumentally folksy. *4. A relaxed French new year’s song for harp/perc/flute/vox. 5. Slow sort of bluegrassy instrumental that picks up. *6. Accordion leads in this midtempo folk tune. *7. So cool! White Christmas in Gaelic. Great fem vox. *8. Another bluegrass-feel for strings & spoons. 9. Sweet harp/flute in a rather medieval sort of folk dance. 10. Sort of new agey. Midtempo instrumental. *11. Slow, sad, nostalgic New Year’s Eve classic. | ||
