To clarify, is a band, not an event, made up of three fiddlers covering some of the spectrum of music -- Ireland, France, and Quebec -- along with guitarist , who's easily the hardest-working man on this disc, not only accompanying everyone, but also having a track to himself with the lovingly executed pipe tune adapted for guitar. Although there's plenty of power on the four tracks where everyone plays, there's far more subtlety in the duos which explores traditions a little more, especially set which commemorates the late Irish fiddler and features the splendid work of , who's largely a legend these days himself. But everyone here is of the same high standard, and when the fiddlers have a chance to stretch out a little, it's a joy, and works up quite a head of steam on the set, while the from are a dancing joy. But then again, the whole album is a delight, especially if you're a fiddle fan. ~ Chris Nickson
