Didier François
Falling Tree
$17.99
A selection of modern, intelligent interpretations of traditional Swedish folk music by Belgian composer-musician Didier François using the traditional Swedish nyckelharpa.
This is blended with hurdy gurdy (Gilles Chabenat), theorbo (Jan van Outryve), acoustic bass (Renaud Garcia-Fons) and duduk (Levon Minassian). And Swedish vocalist Ulrika Boden offers the warmth that makes this a must-hear musical adventure.

The record label rap:
Falling Tree presents a selection of modern, stylish and intelligent interpretations of traditional Swedish folk music. In arrangements by the young Belgian composer-musician Didier François, familiar songs are cloaked in unusual harmonies and re-colored with a fascinating blend of instrumental timbres including the traditional Swedish nyckelharpa, (a violin-like instrument, equipped with a keyboard system), hurdy gurdy, theorbo and duduk (featuring Levon Minassian). The result is a very unusual and beautiful album, full of warm and glowing sounds.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
