by Catherine L. Tully
Artist: Highland Fling Album: "Highland Fling" Year produced: 2005 Simple, pleasant Celtic music combining the sound of the harp, fiddle and hammered dulcimer, this is a lovely CD. Susan Kidney's fiddle playing meshes beautifully with the harp music of Donna Germano. There is a mix of traditional Scottish tunes and new music here, so everyone should be pleased.  The music on the CD spans all tempos, with selections arranged well to compliment each other. The range of sounds that both artists can elicit from their instruments shows their expertise and makes the music a pleasure to sit back and listen to. Don't miss the sweet sounds of track 5, Graveyard Fields or Hector the Hero, track 9 which has spoken lyrics in addition to the music; a nice listen.This album is one to sit back and enjoy. Lament for the Mountains was my favorite track, and is an original of Susan Kidney's. There are 13 tracks with a wide range of sound for only a few instruments! This is a pairing of talent that is something worth listening to. Buy the Album: "Highland Fling" Catherine L. Tully is a freelance writer and photographer specializing in the arts.
