Fabulously fiddle-y Finnish Folk (How’s that for alliteration?) This release features tunes by founding member Arto Järvelä played expertly by this 6-man band made up of 4 fiddles, a harmonium, and a bass. Crisp, toe-tapping and universally good. You can’t go wrong with any track – all instrumentals, good notes too. *1. Mostly midtempo with sharp playing & a nicely liquid melody. 2. Toe-tapping waltz/schottish medley. Playful and catchy. *3. Bright opening, somber middle, then trippingly upbeat. 4. Hints of Israeli folk, midtempo w/a dark, operatic quality. Picks up. *5. Sweet, elegant tango w/a lush, rich quality. 6. Dramatic waltz w/a hint of menace yet strangely beautiful. *7. Bright old-timey toe-tapper w/an American folk influence. 8. Downtempo, stately, almost formal but with a lovely melody. *9. A big old “yee haw!” A happy polka w/lots of energy. *10. A live swing track. Jazzy, cool, oh so fun. Applause at times. Warning: it ends at 5:02 then silence, then at 8:30 a surprise track – a sweet, midtempo dance w/hints of the classic “Love and Marriage.” | ||
