Edito de Love Burns In MeMedieval & traditional songs & fiddle music from Britain & France. Folk meets Early Music in an album of spare and haunting beauty. Well known for her work with Sinfonye and The Dufay Collective, Vivien Ellis is one of the great female voices of the present day. Giles, who is a founder member of the Dufay Collective, is known too for his work with The Carnival Band, Bellowhead and the Irish group After Hours. Both have toured widely in Europe, America and Australia. In LOVE BURNS IN ME the duo explore the links between traditional airs and medieval European song. Sensual evocations of illicit love, Gaelic mouth music, Shetlands balladry and songs in Occitan, the language of the troubadours of Southern France? all contribute to the rich fabric of the album. 'Lewin is an intuitively sympathetic accompanist on both early and modern instruments and Ellis has a simply beautiful voice... Both performers are obviously right at home with folk music and playing it because they love it, the mediaeval songs tug the heartstrings and they should count this record a great success.' fROOTS
