Republic of Strings: Generation Nation

$9.99

The much-anticipated 2nd recording of Darol’s intergenerational Republic Of Strings, wherein the band grows up, fills out, kicks butt. This CD also features 4 insanely great vocal performances, featuring the 4 best singers you may never have heard of, singing great songs from every era. This is the recording that has made the R.O.S. Tim O’Brien’s favorite instrumental band. Crossing generations and musical boundaries, acclaimed violinist Darol Anger’s Republic of Strings uses elements of old-time string band music, jazz, soul, country and early American music to construct a vivid world rich in spirit, bountiful in virtuosity.

American Fiddle Ensemble: Republic of Strings

$9.99

The Darol Anger Fiddle Ensemble recruits a new generation of brilliant players, along with acknowledged masters, for a survey of the international string scene. In Republic of Strings, Anger’s unique vision comes into full play with densely orchestrated arrangements of music from around the world, and new originals. On Compass Records. A disc of magnificent presence and accomplishment. Perhaps the standout characteristic of this astounding music is the diversity of material Anger has managed to round up and “break” (as one might a wild bronc) within its purview: everything from Irish traditional (“Lost in the Loop”) to Detroit soul (“Higher Ground”) to Kentucky bluegrass (“Old Dangerfield”) to LA folk-rock (“Help Me”, featuring the earthy vocals of Laurie Lewis) to Villa-Lobos-like Brazilian-classical (“Andre de Sabato Nuovo”) to smart swing (“Sneezin”) to Arabic (“Ouditras Rez”) to gospel/blues (“Evening Prayer Blues”) to African (“Dzinomwa Muna Save”) to Scandinavian fiddle music (“Sand”). -Jan P. Dennis
