Sacred Landscapes by Sue Aston CD Reviews

Meyn Mamvro

Review from 'Meyn Mamvro'

by Cornish author Cheryl Straffon

'There are some wonderful CDs by artists and performers inspired by the ancient and mythic landscape of Cornwall. One of the most impressive of these is Sacred Landscapes by Sue Aston. Sue plays violin and keyboards and is backed by her partner Phil and other musicians.

The tracks each feature a place in the Cornish Landscape, or are inspired by it, and include Rocky Valley (the wooded glen), Dozmary Pool, Legend of Roche Rock, Waltz of the Merry Maidens, Madron, Earth Sorrow (Sancreed Holy Well), Warleggan and Alsia. The music is absolutely gorgeous – beautiful and moving and so redolent of Sacred Cornwall. An inspirational album that is highly recommended'.

Genius Loci also have a website that has much Cornish Material on it, and shows Sue and Phil’s love and respect for the people and places here. It is well worth a visit.
