This is what's happening when you give 61 talented musicians from 21 ethnic groups free studio time. Lucky for us we even got Natty Wailer of Bob Marley and the Wailers to the studio!

Sean agus Nua' was conceived as a localised project focusing on multiculturalism in early 2004. Its primary aims were to create a lasting documentation of Galway at a hugely important period in its history on entering and adapting to its new cosmopolitan era.
<P>
The seeds of this CD "Sean Agus Nua: Éagsúlacht!" were sown when the Sean Agus Nua Project interviewed Shay Leon of Israel who happened to run a recording studio in the area. Shay's Studio subsequently donated several months of free studio time to bring this celebration of multiculturalism to fruition. The CD attempts to showcase the quality and diversity of World Music that is now available in the Galway area. As the various elements of Galway's new society intermingle the region finds itself on the verge of a new era that crosses several cultural boundaries. Nowdays on a typical night out to the pubs and clubs of Galway one is as likely to encounter African South American or Continental European live music as a traditional Irish music session. Included on this unique CD are more than sixty Galway-based musicians from in excess of twenty countries spread across four continents performing both traditional arrangements and original interpretations of their regions' music and songs. The positive energy field that was created on bringing such diverse musicianship and cultures together on the making of this CD was absolutely awe-inspiring. |
