The reels, jigs, strathspeys, airs, hornpipes, and more on this album suggest a folk release, but that is not quite so; the music is performed from printed notation and taken from publications of Scots and Irish "national" music in the 18th century. It is performed on a mixture of classical and folk instruments. Certainly, the distinction is, in some sense, an artificial one; it doesn't matter whether this is classical or folk music. This is the second such release by The Curious Bards, and either one might indeed be interesting to folk musicians, who may find that some of the tunes have survived the centuries in oral tradition. So have some of the performance practices; the pieces are mostly grouped into sets that may accelerate as they go along. Some of the vocal pieces are in Gaelic, others in English. To the classical side, published arrangements of folk music seem to have been an important part of 18th century musical life, and this repertory has been little explored; that makes this release by The Curious Bards valuable. Most of the music is anonymous, but there are a few pieces by the Irish national composer Turlough O'Carolan. The biggest reason to hear Indiscretion is that the music is thoroughly enjoyable. There is great variety in theme in the vocal pieces, from playful to sad, and rhythmically in the instrumental pieces, from the jigs to little variation sets to the spiky strathspeys. The performances are brisk and not precious, the singing by various vocalists unmannered. Anyone from either side of the folk-classical divide will enjoy this release.
