 Llan de Cubel IV Author/Band: Llan de Cubel
Asturian traditional music of celtic origin
Description/Songs: Following the reception of an honarary Gold Record, awarded by the Spanish
Authorsī Society in 1994, in 1995 IV was released, considered by
many critics as Llan de Cubelīs best work, both in terms of quality and
maturity of style. On tour to promote the record, Llan de Cubel were
described as “the best folk group on the European scene”, by the
organisers of the 40 Festival de la Zampogna (Scapoli, Italy). In October 1996
IV was among the Top 10 Folk Records of the Year on Lee
Blackstone’s programme, Radio WMUA, Amherst, Massachusetts.
Llan de Cubel are unquestionably the most internationally recognised
Asturian folk group and their five records--published between 1987 and
1999--are basic for the new Asturian music. Their tunes are characterized by
their recurring rhythm, the originality in treating the traditional tunes, the
use of vindicatory and poetic texts (in sung themes) and a high melodic and
instrumental quality. They play gaita, violin, flute, percussion, bouzouky,
acoustic guitar, bass and--occasionally--accordion and synthesizer. Llan de
Cubel are: Marcos Llope, Elías García, Fonsu Mielgo--three of
the founders--, Simon Bradley, Xuan Rodríguez and Xel Pereda.
