Sylvain Barou & Ronan Pellen
“The last days of fall”
“I have been listening to the music of Sylvain Barou and Ronan Pellen for many years and have marvelled at their understanding and emotional attachment to Irish instrumental folk music. They have both shown a wonderful musical curiosity and have undertaken a most interesting musical journey based on total exploration and immersion in the Irish tradition. Of more importance is their own musical creativity, based on the life long experience of playing music in a broader sense. This to be heard in abundance on this album as the range of musical choice and execution unveils the beauty and complexity of their music. I salute you both- gurab fhada buan sibh.” Paddy Glackin
