DUBLIN BRASS ENSEMBLE - Breath Upon The Flame - CD
CD
Breath Upon The Flame is an extraordinary musical creation brought to you by William Palmer and Siúbhán Ní Ghríofa. This groundbreaking project merges the timeless beauty of classical brass with the enchanting melodies of Irish music, resulting in a mesmerizing album that captivates the senses.
Breath Upon The Flame was conceived when Siúbhán Ní Ghríofa, having previously worked with Eimear Quinn on her celebrated Christmas album, shared her vision with William Palmer. Their ensemble augments a brass quintet with two strings (violin/viola), a concert harp, and percussion. This innovative combination infuses the music with a delightful array of tones and textures, elevating it to new heights of musical diversity.
In 2017, the captivating sounds of Breath Upon The Flame resonated through the halls of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin, Saint Finbarre’s Cathedral in Cork, and Galway Cathedral.And now, we are thrilled to announce the release of Breath Upon The Flame, an album that transcends genres and breaks new ground in the realm of musical expression.
With Breath Upon The Flame, William Palmer and Siúbhán Ní Ghríofa, along with Eimear Quinn, The Dublin Brass Ensemble, and contributions from notable Irish music producers and composers, invite you to embark on a musical journey like no other. Whether you are an avid lover of classical music, an enthusiast of Irish traditions, or simply someone seeking a transformative musical experience, this album is destined to leave an indelible mark on your soul.
