Pre-Order: Curious Bards - Curious Bards: Ex Tradition (CD)
The Curious Bards immerse us in the 18th-century popular music of Ireland and Scotland, with reels, jigs, songs and dances that circulated in the oral tradition and in print, from the airs of Turlough O'Carolan to the great collections of the period.
