Scottish fiddle music from Quebec.. Fiddler Laura Risk's new solo CD finds her teaming up with Quebec's hottest musicians. The repertoire, however, is pure Scottish: driving Highland reels, melancholy Gaelic airs, passionate Northeast strathspeys
Bio / Background
"A rare level of grace, vivacity, and emotional depth" - The Boston Herald
A California native, Laura Risk began playing Scottish fiddle music as a teenager. Her love of traditional fiddling has led her into a rich journey of performing and teaching the beautiful and diverse repertoires of Scotland, Cape Breton and, most recently, Québec, where she now lives. As evidenced in several highly-praised albums, her playing is extremely expressive and versatile, ranging from elegant music composed for 18th-century Scottish drawing rooms to driving strathspeys and reels suitable for a Cape Breton dance floor.
Laura's new solo recording, 2000 Miles, finds her teaming up with some of Quebec's hottest musicians: Eric Beaudry (La Bottine Souriante) on guitar, Rachel Aucoin (Domino) on piano, Eric Breton (Perdu l'Nord) on percussion, and Michel Donato (Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson) on bass.
