Kornog
IV
$18.99
One of the most repsected of the French-Celtic connections is Brittany's Kornog, whose long history is a measure of the folk revival. Christian Lemaitre, Jean-Michel Veillon, Jamie McMenemy and Gilles Le Bigot recorded this music in 2000, and inspired these words from Roy Eales: "A rare moment came 16 or 17 years ago when I discoverd Kornog bringing the ruins to life at Tonquedec, A 13th century castle in northern Brittany. I was an early encounter with Breton music, and, thanks to them, I became absorbed with it. Here again, with the re-birth of those sounds from the early 1980's - Kornog IV - is the freshness and mitery of Kornog's musical lyricism. Their music is at once noble and modest, scintillating and majestic - like the sea around Brittany relentessly rising and descending. I am gratefull to you Kornog. Thanks Christian, Jamie, Jean Michel, Gilles for playing your music among those Tonquedec stones ... for opening up to me your magical world of Breton music."
