Nordet Concert
Nordet, a prize winning quartet of chanteymen from Brittany, is appearing in the United States for the first time after representing France in the Netherlands at the International Chantey Festival celebrating the 400th anniversary of the Dutch-India Company. They perform traditional Breton songs, working songs of both Atlantic coasts, and related traditional and contemporary compositions, wowing crowds throughout Europe. All four men are masterful singers: Pierre Guillemot plays the bodhran, Francis Arzul, the flute and diatonic accordions, Daniel Lafontaine the bouzouki, violin, and guitar, and Philippe Falquerho the guitar. The interplay of their singing and instrumentals forms a compelling whole that leaves audiences calling for more. All four men had started singing as children. They formed a singing group in the 1990's and have presented sea music with a mixture of humour and reverence.
