A Collection of Slow Airs By Some Very Fine Fiddlers
Nyahh Records is delighted to share with you itâs second instalment of our Trad Series. This time we bring you a collection of traditional fiddle tunes called Slow Airs. Slow Airs differ from other Irish trad tunes as Airs are more contemplative, melancholy and the style is based more on the singing style of Sean-nos. Other traditional tunes like jigs, reels, hornpipes and marches are meant for dancing. Much like the sean-nos singing, slow airs are for listening and are prone to evoke many emotions, either reflective or sad and give the listener a chance to sit quietly listening, almost in a meditative state. It would not be uncommon in a pub during an air to see some fella or other having a little cry in to his pint during the playing on an air. Much like âA Collection of songs in the traditional and sean-nos styleâ, where the singers mostly recorded the songs themselves on phones or digital recorders, the musicians have done the same. This has produced a very warm and roomy set of recordings. No effects or too much mixing. Just the raw sound of the playing in a room. Nyahh is honoured to be able to present this collection of airs to you from some of Irelandâs best fiddlers.
