Bach, Up /Anger-Block

just thinking about Pen Vandever and Bill Monroe's beautiful tribute recording. This tune was written off Buffalo Gals, to fit into a song of Darrell Scott's that Emy recorded. But it lays pretty well on its own, this morning in May 2018. How can the great sadness of this world exist side by side with music's joy? Quantum reality in macro.
With Bronwyn Keith-Hynes [fiddles], Ethan Setiawan [mandolin], Nathan Sabat [bass], Emy Phelps [guitar]. Thanks, you wonderful people. We made something out of nothing again!

Dancin' Round Your Door

Overture of a work in progress called The Acadiana Suite, for string chamber orchestra. About 6 short movements. This is being again overhauled this year. 
Originally written for the Fiddlers 4 and string orchestra, a version of this was premiered in Lafayette, Louisiana in 2006. Re-written for an award-winning documentary about another award-winning documentary, The Louisiana Story, adapted from Virgil Thompson's symphonic adaptation of Cajun field recordings. How many layers can we possibly have here?

This gargantuanly rockin' original by Emy Phelps features a choir of octave mandolins, a  jazz celtic harp, electric slide fiddle, mando-snare, Aoife O'Donovan singing backup... all the ingredients for a monster summer hit.
