Awen
is the second album from Brittany's Tristan Le Govic, an album
of harp music with a beguiling enigma, and charming subtlety.
The harp is an instrument that is fast becoming my favourite;
I'm drawn to its winsome combination of sensitivity and nimble
complexity, which are both facets that Le Govic demonstrates
deftly. Borrowing from across the various Celtic traditions,
the thread that binds Awen is telling throughout though never
cliché, offering tunes from Ireland and Scotland as well
as Le Govic's native Brittany, alongside a selection of original
material. Mike Wilson [Audio samples coming soon
