Fiddle In a Tree

Front cover of the CD Fiddle in a Tree

 

Fiddle in a Tree is a collection of instrumental tunes that explores many evocative moods and styles - from the strutting, bluesy "Lobster Stroll," to the powerful, Dawgish "Dark and Stormy," to the serene, jazzy "Blue Heron." And there are three lovely waltzes! Julian Smedley perfectly captures the melodies and then improvises on them within the mood of each piece. Chuck, Topher, David, and Louisa add their own signatures to the tunes as well, with fine solos and thoughtful accompaniment. It's an enjoyable listen: alternately toe-tapping, quirky, sweet, and funky.

 

 

All tunes were written by Topher Gayle, except "Homesick for the Westland."
