GREENFIRE

A CELTIC STRING ENSEMBLE

Laura Risk, Fiddle and Viola
Ken Kolodner, Hammer Dulcimer
Robin Bullock, 6 & 12 String Guitars, Cittern and Piano


The ancient rhythms and melodies of traditional Celtic music have captured the imaginations of vast numbers of people in recent years.   As the boundaries in our world continue to crumble, humankind looks to its cultural roots for the seeds of creative expression that nurture us and hold hope for re-birth.   Those seeds live in the folk and indigenous traditions of music, story and dance, which reach down through time and speak clearly to us in the present day.   The music of the Celtic lands, particularly powerful in the world right now, is brought to life most eloquently by the trio
Greenfire.
