Substituting Dried Blueberries For Raisins

Concert review: Folk spring with Dylan Fowler & Gillian Stevens and Michael Busch and White Canvas on 03/15/2008 at folk in the fire palace in Bad

Folk spring with Dylan Fowler & Gillian Stevens and Michael Busch and White Canvas on 15/03/2008 at folk in the fire palace in Bad Honnef

also as a multiplier, it can happen that you what you send around, not just by reading. Thus came Petra and I habitually short 20 to clock the fire palace, but the concert had already started exceptionally by 19 clock. And it was proppevoll, even the media chairs were already taken up elsewhere. Only on the stairs, there were still seats, well after all!

Sadly as the not so comfortable seat I was on the contribution of the duo White Canvas, consisting of Rena Meyer and Rolf Weil Beydemüller was already almost too late when we arrived. Rolf played guitar, sang, Rena. This was indeed not folk music, but rather something that every right can be described as "art music". Rolf played very delicate, very Rena sang ..., let's say mystical. Between alto and soprano alternating with very unusual melody guides the user rather than English and I do not know what, probably a fantasy language or no, her voice as an instrument used. So you need to rest.

Michael Busch from Speyer was by this time after the first two breaks in the series. He was limited to playing the guitar, and he delivered more art than folk music. Most likely still be among the game reminded me Folkies Olaf Sickmann, and like this it was also Michael particular impressions of the trip that inspired him to his compositions, notably those from Celtic lands, but also from Sweden or elsewhere. A piece was inspired by the novel "Stone and the Flute" by Hans Bemmann although Michael has played no flute. And as with Olaf came to the listener (ie me) do not necessarily reflect the associations that the composer came when composing, but that's probably the problem with any instrumental music program. Anyway, it was a very fine and delicate music that invited you to dream.

entered after the second break again a duo on stage: Dylan Fowler & Gillian Stevens from Wales. Dylan acted as a guitar, bouzouki (or was it a mandola?), Tin and low whistle player, Gillian served a violin and Crwth one, a kind of medieval violin from Wales, in the appearance of a lyre similar to the sound of a keyed fiddle. In addition, both sang well, and in this way, they offered a music between the Middle Ages, Renaissance and New Age, along with welsh bard song on which Michael had had Klevenhaus his joy. Gillian way, is the aunt of a fellow student of mine whom I met on the night there. So small is the world!

As befits a festival evening, there was a session at the end of all the musicians involved (in) at once. This was really a spontaneous, improvised jam session that would have been enough for an evening of jazz honor. Rena stayed in singing hands behind the ears to hear the sound of her voice better, so it almost looked like a muezzin (Muslim prayer callers). Although we were too late, we had noticed almost three hours of music. Not everything we liked equally well, but some excellent. Jutta Mensing announced, probably frequently times to organize such a festival evening, with two or three gigs one after another. They should do it!
