Spinning On Air

Arborea

Sunday, January 20, 2008

As Arborea, Buck and Shanti Curran often make music in an old cabin on the shore of a lake in Maine. But this time they bring their string instruments, voices, and delicate, pine needle songs to WNYC for this in-studio performance on Spinning On Air. The snow is deep in Maine, but the music and conversation are warm here in New York City as host David Garland welcomes Arborea.

I just love their music and the lyrics are beautiful.

I was very impressed.

I hadn't heard of them before but I will definitely buy their CDs now.

It was a fantastic show i really enjoyed listening to the music but equally enjoyed listening to the artists explain some of their songs in their own words. buck sorry you had a sore throat but it was nice to listen to you talk about your time in the navy and share that story with us!

take care!

Enjoyed the music very much. Did anyone catch the name of the cellist who was mentioned and who plays on Arborea's upcoming CD?

The most wonderful music played by two beautiful people. I found Arborea on MySpace in Nov '07. "Wayfairing Summer" CD (via CDBaby) was my top Christmas present this year.

It was a joy to hear this show.

Your music truely is life enriching.

Thankyou Shanti and Buck

(To answer your question Becky, the cellist is Helena Espvall)
