Info for Indiscretion

Following on their impressive debut album [*Ex]tradition*, the Curious Bards—an early-music ensemble founded by violinist Alix Boivert in 2015—continue to explore material from the Scottish and Irish folk traditions preserved in 18th-century publications. This new collection of airs and dances is a chance to discover more of this fascinating repertoire, in which the distinctions between serious music and popular inspiration need no longer apply.

The Curious Bards:
Ilektra Platiopoulou, mezzo-soprano
Quentin Viannais, Bagpipes
Pierre Gallon, harpsichord
Samuel Serandour, Bodhran
