Claire Pelletier in Concert

Richard Blauman | Naples, Florida United States | 02/01/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The songs on this 2002 recording are mostly from her first two albums, with slightly different arrangements. It captures the magic and the excitement of the performance. Those living in or traveling to Quebec are fortunate enough to be able to see her perform regularly; the rest of us fortunately have this double CD. The recording is near studio quality; you wouldn't know it was live except for the applause. The music is celtic, well written & performed flawlessly. The band includes acoustic guitar, bass, violin, & drums. Claire herself co-writes many of the songs and plays acoustic guitar, flute, & percussion. Her voice truly is a gift. You do not need to know French to appreciate her warm, beautiful vocals. She is a rare talent, far beyond the "pop" singers we usually hear. Highly recommended."
