I was really looking forward to these, after our dear departed friend Shirl (she of the red feather boa) used to wax lyrical about them. I wasn't disappointed. This is what I like discovering - good traditional music from anywhere in the world, played well and with love and infectious enthusiasm. I was astounded at how the fiddler could keep up the foot-tapping while playing.
Thanks guys for including Le Vent du Nord on the programme, they were perfect for the afternoon slot. I look forward to catching them again somewhere.
Shirl would have loved them!
