Description
Derek Bell,
of the Chieftains, captures the haunting, mystical quality of traditional
Celtic music on this solo album of original melodies by Donald Walters.
Derek has played
harp for 23 years with five-time Grammy Award-winning group, The
Chieftains--Ireland's best-known interpreters of traditional Celtic
music. Classically trained, Bell joined the group in 1972, after
a distinguished career as a harpist with the Northern Ireland BBC
Orchestra, and as a professor of harp and Irish harps at the Belfast
Academy of Music.
For thirty-one
years, The Chieftains have been the most influential of the Irish
folk musicians, credited with doing more to spread the appreciation
of traditional Irish music than any other group in Ireland's history.
Bell, a resident of Northern Ireland, has several solo albums to
his credit. He has composed three piano sonatas and Symphony in
E-flat for orchestra, and is the recipient of the Manns Prize from
the Royal College of Music.
