CD Reviews

Fun Folk of the French-Canadian Style

Dr. Debra Jan Bibel | Oakland, CA USA | 03/17/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Warning: Track 5, Mamzelle Kennedy and Track 6, Les Métiers, are pure joy. The other fine works on this latest album of the great instrumental and vocal folk group from Quebec, Canada, Le Vent du Nord, also contribute to a grand, mature musical collection. This is the group's most varied yet well-balanced album, with mainly tradition-based ballads and dances, heroic tales, nostalgic laments, and even an arrangement recalling the music hall or oldtime bandstand. The musicians perform with such energy and cheer that the listener cannot help but share in the fun. This is a very satisfying album. I must be a fan because it is my third from these Québecois. The style of folk song typically involves a solo singer presenting a verse or phrase with immediate choral repetitions. Instruments, which include piano and diatonic accordions, hurdy gurdy, jaw harp, violin, guitar, mandolin, piano, and bouzouki and percussion, provide an ancient and traditional country sound to modern arrangements."

A smoothly presented and unforgettable taste of Canada's mus

Midwest Book Review | Oregon, WI USA | 11/16/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Quebec's Le Vent du Nord (The Wind of the North) presents their latest album La Part Du Feu, the theme of which reflects its title about individuals contributing to a shared future. The songs on La Part Du Feu dig the foundation of Canada's history and musical roots, from "Octobre 1837" which remembers a French uprising against British rule, to the reconstruction of the lyrics to the song "Elise". A smoothly presented and unforgettable taste of Canada's musical culture, highly recommended for international music CD collections. The tracks are Lanlaire (4:49), Octobre 1837 (4:01), La Mine (3:31), Petit Reve V (2:04), Mamzelle Kennedy (4:03), Les Metiers (2:54), Elise (5:37), Le Coeur en Trois (3:48), Rossignolet (3:54), Montcalm (2:42), L'attente (4:21), Le Cavalier et la Belle (4:07), and Ecris-Moi (3:32)."
