LASAIRFHÍONA
NÍ CHONAOLA An Raicín Álainn 2002. LNC 001 Geoff Wallis, Folk Roots Magazine. (Jan/Feb 2003) An Raicín Álainn: own label, LNC001CD "...Thoroughly engaging throughout, Lasairfhíona's sean-nós skills shine on the unaccompanied, witty 'Amhrán an Phúca' and, one of the great Connacht love songs,'Úna Bhán'. Máire Breatnach's production is sensitivity incarnate and there are guest appearances from the acclaimed whistler Mary Bergin and bodhrán wizard Johnny McDonagh, on one of the most sumptuous albums of traditional singing to have emerged for some time." Sarah McQuaid, Hotpress, Vol. 26, Issue 18 Beautifully effortless sean-nós singing here from Inishere native and TCD graduate Lasairfhíona Ní Chonaola, who's confident enough in her voice to let it do its thing gently, without strident belting or stylistic tics. She's got a lovely way of speaking, too: on the spine-tingling Oileán na Teiscinne, her quiet incantation of the words over a blend of guitar and gurgling wave sounds manages to transcend any suggestion of tweeness or cliché. Máire Breatnach's production is flawless and the accompanying musicians are superb, including such stalwarts as Mary Bergin, Johnny "Ringo" McDonagh - not to mention Breatnach herself. Siobhán Long, The Ticket, Irish Times, 12/09/02 The emergence of talented women musicians in a male-dominated (recording) tradition must surely be one of the great pleasures of recent years. Inis Oírr singer Lasairfhíona Ní Chonaola is a performer whose vocal chords and tympanic membranes are as finely tuned as a taut spring. An Raicín Álainn/The Beautiful Comb is a glorious tincture of of her catholic repertoire, many of her songs borrowed from her own island tradition, and none more pristine than Inis Oírr in Inis Oírr, it's dusky corners inhabited by producer Máire Breatnach's lonesome viola and Mary Bergin's low whistle. Ní Chonaola's breathy vocals could easily wallow in Céline Dion territory, wringing every last drop of emotion from this immaculate colection, but she subscribes with aplomb to a minimalism that so becomes her. John O' Regan, Irish Music Magazine, Vol 8 no. 3, October 2002 Lasairfhíona's voice is an attractive and yet unusual thing within Sean-Nós circles; being wispy and ethereal with a floating childlike quality it is a highly individualistic slant on an age-old tradition... Vocally this diversity lends itself to both lighter songs as in "Bean Pháidín" and the heavier, more demanding songs of the the Sean-Nós repertoire like "Úna Bhán". However this is no run of the mill Sean-Nós album - L. has an imagination and musical vision which moves far beyond the strict boundaries of Gaelic singing.. .the lilting title track seductively caresses the ears while "Casadh an tSúgáin" mixes an effective arrangement by Máire Breatnach and a winsome vocal performance. "An Raicín Álainn" is a fresh-sounding and challenging listen, adding new layers of sophistication to an age-old vocal repertoire and tradition. Listen with open ears and prepare to be amazed. |
