Synopsis
Product Description
Known around the world for his dramatic connections between Native American and Celtic traditions that culminate in inspiring violin and flute compositions, Arvel Bird today announced the release of his 17th album Storyteller. After years of demand from his fans, Bird has compiled the many traditional stories that he vividly tells during his live performances into one riveting recording.
In this spoken word CD, Bird emotionally blends the cultural and spiritual elements of the majestic animals that were such an integral part of the lives of indigenous ancestors. From the strength of The Bear, to the flight of The Red-Tailed Hawk, the stories of each animal totem blend in magical harmony with the musical compositions in the background.
Always a part of his inspiring performances, Bird's stories have never before been compiled and recorded as an art in themselves. It is these stories that make Bird s music evoke the soul of North American history. His performances are entertaining, but also enlightening and humanizing, and Storyteller captures the essence of his live performance. Arvel Bird IS the Storyteller.
"I've always focused on the music in my previous CDs, yet I always wanted to capture the many stories that I tell during live performances", said Arvel Bird. "Storyteller is a labor of love, because I so thoroughly enjoy the stories that bring my music to life." "Storytelling is such an integral part of my ancestral traditions, both on my Native American and Scottish sides," continued Bird. "Honoring this tradition is part of my heritage and it is my obligation to share the tradition of storytelling with the world."
