Savage, Alastair & Alice Allen

Where The Good Ship Lands

Cellist Alice Allen is on somewhat of a roll these days, her muse becoming ridiculously productive, both as a solo artist and in the many collaborations she is stacking up. Savage maybe less well known, he is a classically trained fiddler, with a handful of solo works behind him, each embracing the foundations of Scottish traditional fiddle, bridging a folk/classical divide, actually not so far removed from Allens own modus operandi. Where The Good Ship Lands is quite a purist release, but, for anyone curious as to the possibilities inherent in bringing both Scottish chamber music together with more contemporary themes, this is a solid primer in both.
