Oikan ayns Bethlehem
La Nef and the soprano Meredith Hall invite you to celebrate Christmas
with the Celts! Share an evocative peregrination from the sixteenth to
the eighteenth century, from Brittany to Galicia, passing through Ireland
and Scotland. Puritan poems provide a contrast to traditional pieces played
with rhythmic gusto. Six musicians accompany Meredith Hall, who is known
for her pure voice and sparkling presence.
Meredith Hall : soprano
Sylvain Bergeron : lute, baroque guitar
Martine Chiasson : fiddle, nyckelharpa, vielle
Patrick Graham : percussion
