The track "Rio Del Corazon" is taken from Kate Price's great and excellent recorded Album "Deep Heart's Core" (1995). At the heart of the contemporary Celtic revival dwells soul of Kate Price. A talented multi instrumentalist with a rich and beautiful voice, Kate continues to defy the very genre her early work helped define. Her music is as much a journey for her as for the listener. Her repertoire blends cross cultural influences with her lyrical voice and her dynamic yet intimate sensibility.
Often compared to Canada's Loreena McKennitt, Kate Price is America's premier celtic vocalist. Her innovative musical style is known as "Celtic World Music". She introduces exotic rhythms to traditional joyous Celtic melodies creating refreshingly different music with international appeal. Price's rich, compelling voice is accompanied by the hammer dulcimer an ancient stringed instrument along with piano, guitar, violin, pennywhistle, bass, English horn, and cittern for a passionate collection celebrating her own Celtic heritage.
"Deep Heart's Core" allowed Kate a fuller expression of her fire (two years later than her debut solo album "The Time Between"). With compositions that navigated between the Balkans, the British lsles, and Latin flavors, this recording is a passionate, playful and intimate portrait of Kates internal world. Co-Produced by Teja Bell, "Deep Hear'ts Core" exploded into the music scene and garnished international acclaim and distribution in 28 countries. It was from "Deep Heart's Core" that CBS chose a track to score a 1998 Olympic coverage documentary in Nagana Japan.
Listen and enjoy it.
