Folk it! (XL)

fri 9 jan 2009 20:00 hrs

Folk magazine about past and present, from freak folk to minstrels.

We know the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Alps, the route du soleil, the Tour.. Every year hordes of holidaymakers go to the country of Marianne. But, what do we know about France and about French folk music in particular? Probably very little. In just one hour Folk it! (XL) there is obviously no way we can provide a complete overview of the authentic music and present-day successors of the country of boursin et du vin. For this we refer to the beautiful edition of ‘Anthologie de la chanson Française’ with the EPM label. In this mini special we do pay attention to Gabriel Yacoub; one of the most important folk musicians of contemporary French folk music. Before that you will hear how Les Doigts de l’homme covers gypsy music in metal speed and how Gregory Jolivet cranks up his hurdy-gurdy with the energy of a true punk rocker. Daniele Sepe is Italian and he gives the Neapolitan folk music a contemporary twist. We end with the Norwegian Ragnhild Furebotten trio but before that we will surprise you with an actual demo of a young Flemish group called Dr. Eugene and a look ahead at the calendar with the Scottish group Malinky. Oh right.. the comparison? How about ‘Pierre de Grenoble’ in French and … in Finnish!
