August 6th, 2009 by Ian Where Cultures Collide – Salsa Celtica
I’ve recently rekindled my love of Celtic Music with a band that appeals to both my passion and heritage. The band I’m referring to is appropriately named Salsa Celtica. They incorporate a wonderful marriage of traditional Irish/Scottish music stylings with the enigmatic rhythms of Afro-Cuban music. I find the music to be both discordant and harmonious. The stylings of both peoples so varied and unique that each voice dances in between roles that are supportive and sometimes mimetic to projective and assertive. This music felt brand new and yet somehow familiar.
My first inklings into Celtic music came from my grandfather who is into the traditional Irish songs, mostly bagpipe music that personally is rather …um… truthfully annoying. Sorry, grandpa. (more…)
