Lathrop's Waltz is a waltz I wrote for my father on his 50th birthday. Here, as the title of my brand new album suggests, I pay tribute to my late father, William Lathrop Bauhan.
I am honored to be joined by a host of new and emerging talent from the fiddle of Emma Clarkson, aged 12, to the amazingly clear voice of Chloe Green in her early 20’s, with three of the Orzechowski clanFrancis, Russell and Sophie playing fiddles and piano*.
As well traditional jigs and reels, there are lots of contemporary tunes from Scotland, Ireland, France, French Canada and America, including a number a new tunes I've written. What's excitingly new on this CD are the addition of two songs, one traditionalThe Snows They Melt the Soonest and Garnet Rogers’ song, The Lost Ones, sung by Chloe Green.
*The veterans and my good friends also return, Marko Murray on guitar, Kent Allyn on bass and keyboards, Jane Orzechowski on fiddle, David Surette on mandolin and bouzouki, Kirsty Anderson on clarsach, Iain Bain on highland pipes and Bob McQuillen on piano.
