2CELLOS are Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser from Croatia. My 16 year old introduced me to them just this week after she came across them on Youtube. Their passionate, dueling cellos version of Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal has taken the world by storm and I personally, can’t get enough of it either!
2CELLOS can also be joined on Twitter and Facebook. Go and check them out!
Michael Nyman is an English composer but I know him mostly for the moving sound track created for ‘The Piano’ back in 1993. I never tire of watching the movie for its cinematography and the way it captures the harsh New Zealand landscapes. If you don’t know this film or yet to hear the soundtrack, take a listen and be prepared for a visual and audio feast!
The Piano: Original Music From The Film By Jane Campion
Christy Moore is an accomplished Irish folk singer, songwriter and guitarist. I discovered Christy Moore during my time in the UK and had since purchased a couple of his CDs. A Twitter / Facebook buddy reminded me this week I had the CDs. I’d not listened to them for a bit, so I pulled them out and have now been enjoying them whilst I work! The ‘Night Visit’ is one of my favourites.
Loreena McKennitt is from Canada and most well-known for her music with Celtic and Moorish themes. Loreena incorporates visiting such travel destinations which inspire her music. Places such as Ireland, Spain and Morocco.
Loreena was introduced to me when I heard “Huron ‘Beltane’ Fire Dance” playing early one morning on the ABC radio in the very early 1990s. I was awakening from a deep sleep and the celtic sounds shook me to attention! I have since seen Loreena in concert and had her sign a couple of my CDs. The concert was magical. Candles lit the stage and the talent of this woman, left me in awe. She sang, she played the harp, the accordion and various other instruments and it totally drew you in. I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I do.
