Carlos Núñez – A Irmandade das Estrelas
Album
Galicia in north-western Spain possesses one of the Atlantic seaboard's most vibrant musical traditions, centred on the gaita (Galician bagpipe). This acclaimed 1996 debut by piper Carlos Núñez serves as a musical bridge between Iberian Celtic folklore and musicians from Ireland and Brittany. With guest appearances from The Chieftains and nightingale vocalist Luz Casal, tracks like Cantigueiras and Negracha spotlight the exuberant swing of Galician muiñeiras and alboradas.
