Room Enough for All

A superb new release from Battlefield Band, one of the great institutions of the Scottish music scene. Their invigorated & inspired fusion of ancient and modern traditional music continually evolves whilst still staying true to the tradition, and illustrates that they remain amongst the most vital contemporary composers and interpreters of traditional music today. These recordings capture Scotland s flagship band at the top of their game: the band’s ever-fiery instrumental dynamic, with bagpipes and fiddles to the fore, exhibits the intuitive interplay and understanding between world class traditional musicians, while their songs of social history, plaintive ballads and songs from the Scots Gaelic tradition are as powerful, relevant and moving as ever.
‘…a wondrous perfectly paced display by musicians firmly in command of their art…’ –The Washington Post.’Battlefield Band’s melody driven instincts are technically flawless and fabulously entertaining’ –Piping Today’s another inspirational recording from the flagship Scottish band, which may well be counted as their finest hour in the studio… This is a well nigh faultless disc, and the concomitant is that faultless discs are all too often soulless – but emphatically not in this case. –David Kidman, FateaHere’s another inspirational recording from the flagship Scottish band, which may well be counted as their finest hour in the studio… This is a well nigh faultless disc, and the concomitant is that faultless discs are all too often soulless – but emphatically not in this case. –David Kidman, Fatea
