Info for Enchanted Isle

Neue Arrangements schottischer und irischer Melodien finden sich neben Kompositionen von Texten einiger der größten englischen Dichter. Enchanted Isle wirft einen modernen Blick auf die Landschaft geprägt von sanften Hügeln und grünen Tälern, schroffen Berghängen und versteckten Dörfern. Musik, die ursprünglich für Film oder Fernsehen geschrieben wurde, wird neu interpretiert, um Klangfarben zu schaffen, die an Aquarelllandschaften oder sorgfältig gemeißelte Skulpturen erinnern.
