Fanfare Pourpour & Lars Hollmer – Karusell Musik (Canada/Sweden 2007) [AvantProg] @224

18 11 2007

****DELETED****
Brilliant composer and accordionist Lars Hollmer performs his wonderful tunes with a 20 piece orchestra, with the arrangements by Jean Derome. Great melodies, wonderful orchestrations and arrangements and a the amazing sound that only a large ensemble can produce. Highly recommended!
“Recorded “live” in the studio, Karusell Musik delivers 17 compositions by and with Swedish accordionist Lars Hollmer, orchestrated by Jean Derome for the Fanfare Pourpour. The Fanfare — an authentic large dance ensemble like they don’t make ’em anymore, with a brass section, saxes, clarinets, guitars, banjo, accordions, violins, and percussion — invites you to discover or rediscover the songs and tunes of Lars Hollmer. Lars Hollmer has travelled the world with his timeless melodies full of naive beauty and dancing lyricism, in a number of musical projects. Egged on by Jean Derome, the Fanfare Pourpour embarked on this adventure with Hollmer. In October 2006, Hollmer was back on Québec soil for a week of rehearsals and recordings: the Fanfare backing up Lars; Lars writing for the Fanfare. A double rapture where the Swede’s tunes find a new home and the Quebecois Fanfare is given pieces that were clearly meant for it.

Sorry demetrio, I haven’t the last Lars or Samla albums. Maybe I will buy it soon.

To l’homme scalp:

I know that many users in my blog will buy this work. They always do that.
My blog is differentiated cause almost users here are not teens. They have conditions to buy any album they want.
You can see the anonymous above ordering the album.
My intent is not to harm any musician. My intent is, only, spread good music.
If the owner of this work ask me to remove the shared album, it will be done immediately.
I didn’t add the link to buy it cause almost all here know where to buy. If not they can use Google to find it.

I live in Brasil and I not gonna pay the equivalent to 1/4 or even 2/5 of my country’s minimum wage to buy a CD, that’s too expensive…if musicians sold their stuff online cheaper I would consider paying it, until that thanks god for people like CrimsonKing that don’t earn anything for that but still keep up spreading good music…

CrimsonKing for president! (LOL)

Many many thanks for the new Lars Hollmer project! For me it’s impossible to get (or to buy) such music anywhere but in the net.
From Russia with love.
Hasse.

Another beauty from The Undercover Man! Your choices always seem to hit the right notes for me. (The Kultivator you just posted is an all-time fav).

Maga-thanks for this one.
