Ostravaganza - Estro Reel

O’Stravaganza (Vivaldi in Ireland) is an album published in 2001 by Hughes de Courson. De Courson’s work is a kind of World fusion music. There are only a handful of such arrangers who combine folk music and classical music in a similar vein. Other examples are Mark O’Connor (“The Fiddle Concerto“ 1995), Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin (“Between Worlds“, 1995) and Shaun Davey (“The Pilgrim“ 1984). His aim was to create a fusion of Irish music and Baroque music.
