5.0 out of 5 stars High wire, 5 Oct 2005

By	Louise Stanley (Reading, Berkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This is one of the best Rough Guide CDs available, apart from the Russian CD (and for owners of that delightful compilation, Zhanna Bichevskaya makes a welcome return). Many suffer from being filled with obtuse or obscure artists and recordings, accessible only to the conoisseur, but this is filled with sparkling tunes, particularly the beautiful and haunting "Isabelle" by Belgian Lais, and the wonderful Knodelpolka.

The range of music covers everything from fado to flamenco guitar and the beautiful Angelite Bulgarian voices. Hedningarna represent Scandinavia with the magical "Veli" (from one of their best albums, "Karelia Visa").

The British Isles, long excluded from European compilations, are represented by three tracks; Eliza Carthy's English folk song, while not my favourite, is at least more representative of English traditional music than much "English" folk music, which has increasingly become reliant on modern compositions and protest lyrics and turned its back on the spunky tracks put out by Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span in the 1970s. Altan's "Donal agus Morag" is far and away my favourite Irish song, again eschewing the more modern "touristy Irish" sound and getting back to more ethnic roots, and including a Scottish Gaelic track again brings out more of an earthy atmosphere than merely shoving a bagpipe tune on. Britain has been poorly served by recent output and deserves this showing of her own ethnic heritage.

One complaint I might make is that the emphasis is on Western Europe when much of the best European world comes from the east (particularly the Baltic Republics, which have yet to feature on any Rough Guide). However this is a minor point and one which I'm sure the Rough Guide series will rectify before long.
