SUMMARY:Ottawa Chamberfest | Skye Consort & Emma Björling
DESCRIPTION:This…collaboration between an Early Music folk fusion trio from Canada and a Swedish singer…immediately has the appeal of the unusual. (Issue 131\, The Living Tradition) \nAt their Chamberfest debut\, Skye Consort & Emma Björling will perform their “trans-Atlantic chamber folk” with arrangements of songs and tunes from Sweden\, Norway\, Ireland\, Scotland\, England\, Québec\, Acadia\, and the USA\, bringing old stories\, melodies\, and themes back to life in a contemporary musical setting. \nAbout their album Skye Consort & Emma Björling\, The Whole Note’s Barry Livingston says that “the songs are beautifully arranged\, and Björling’s vocals are fully integrated into the ensemble\, giving the music the feel of a true collaboration. One of the best folk recordings of 2019.” \nEmma Björling\, award-winning Swedish singer\, composer\, and arranger\, met Alex Kehler (fiddle\, nyckelharpa)\, Amanda Keesmaat (cello)\, and Seán Dagher (cittern/bouzouki\, banjo) during a La Nef project in Montréal in October 2017 and “thanks to” Emma’s cancelled flight and their mutual love for each other’s celebrated musicianship\, the Skye Consort & Emma Björling partnership was born. \nWith voice\, fiddle\, nyckelharpa\, cello\, bouzouki\, banjo\, and percussion\, each musician brings their unique slant to these musical traditions to create a program of whirling polskas\, groovy reels\, passionate love songs\, breathtaking hymns\, and original compositions.
