Tour de France
This disc is the work of Northern California artists and neighbors who have played together for more than 25 years. The inside back cover illustration, created by Vickie Yancy, a member of the group, features portraits of many of the performers who worked on this CD. The venue is the Lark in the Morning music camp put on each year at the Mendocino Woodlands by Mickie Zekley. French folk music has always been a feature at the Mendocino Woodlands Lark Camp, and the many thousands of participants who have taken part in the workshops there will recognize fellow campers in the portrait. Alan Keith is the bagpipe player on this album. Alan owns and plays more than ten French bagpipes, some he has made himself. He has also played Scots Highland Pipes since a teenager, and he has been a member of top level competition bands. He is in demand as a teacher and often performs at ceremonial events. Debra Dawson has lived in France and she specializes in preparing French cuisine as a professional caterer when she is not playing French music. Arrigo D'Albert brought French folk music to the Mendocino Coast and is a great inspiration to all who know him. He came to this country from Switzerland in 1968, and brought with him the very first vielle a roue (or hurdy-gurdy as it is known in English) to reach Mendocino. The vielle a roue, like the bagpipe uses the principle of the drone. Strings rather than wind produce the sound. Tour de France were finalists in the 1998 "A Prairie Home Companion"
