Leonard Brown CD ‘Requested by You’, Newcastle - UKby Rob Howard |
 ‘Requested by You’ is the title of Leonard Brown’s latest CD, which as the title suggests, comprises music that is often requested at his concerts and ceilidhs. The 20 tracks include Willie and Bertha’s Boston, Valse Parisienne, The Craic at Clashmore Hall/Kiwi Pipers, Bayerisch Kraut Polka (composed by Christa Behnke), Canadian Jigs, Draggin the Bow, Leonard Brown’s Reel, The Rose, Bel Fiore (Frosini), Quickstep Cellection, Kate Martin’s Waltz, The More I see You, Ukrainian Polka, The Blue Danube (Strauss), John Macdonald of Glencoe/Crossing The Minch, Cape Verdean Blues, Jigs Selection, A Fond La Caisse, Danny Boy, Iain MacPhail Reels. On this recording Leonard is ably supported by Davie Stewart (accordion), Maggie Adamson (fiddle), Liam Stewart (piano), John Sinton (double bass), and Malcolm Ross (drums/percussion). Leonard Brown, from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, NW England, is one of the UK’s brightest young accordion talents. Also a fine pianist and a band leader, he is much in demand, especially in Scotland, for concerts, ceilidhs, and recording sessions. In 2012 he became only the second Englishman to become an All Scotland Accordion Champion (Robert Whitehead being the first). Leonard’s biography is to be found in Rob Howard’s recently published book ‘Accordion Anthology’. For further information email: leonardbrownaccordion@gmail.com |
