Interesting albums from the folk and roots music history, by Marius Roeting.

Around the turn of the century a theme CD was released with songs about spinners and weavers on the Flemish label Wild Boar. The project Cadans der Getrouwen was performed by a project group, which consisted of a number of Flemings (Rudy Velghe-violin and Anja van Reeth-vocals) and the Belgian-Spanish Raquel Gigot (accordion) with primarily Dutch input: Jenny van Diggelen (flutes), Bart Wouters (Double Bass), Michiel van den Boer (drums) and Annemiek van de Geijn (keys). The most famous name for strangers in the world of folk was singer Gerard van Maasakkers. Multi-musician Guy Roelofs from Breda is the driving force, creator, purveyor for his own melodies and texts (next to traditional ones), recording technician and arranger. From the neo-pop (MAM in the 80’s and 90’s) Roelofs eventually ended up with the Celtic folk, the folk groups (Pegasus and later the own Moira). But Roelofs became the advocate of todays’ Dutch folk song and music. From the group Grond the project Cadans der Getrouwen arose, with which Roelofs draws on his own roots as son and grandson of a textile worker. He collected existing songs in which the joys and sorrows of the textile worker are being brought to light, a.o. in the Meertens Institute and regionally with chronicled melodies and texts in Brabantish. He supplemented them himself. Cadans der Getrouwen is probably not the first and only thematic folk album in the Netherlands, however, it is one with a shelf life. The songs still sound cheerful, hearty, moving, but particularly grasped in a piece of history, which were transformed to the here and now by non-museological, but contemporary arrangements. Recently the entire project was remastered, but we will broadcast the original release.
