Celtic Essence is an invitation on a musical expedition both to the heart of the northern isles and into the depths of the soul. The tour starts with the very first refined notes: crystalline voices and the harmonies of the guitar ring out with ancestral echoes, the harp gracefully recounts tales and legends of the Celtic lands, and exquisite dream-like melodies evoke Ireland’s green countryside and Scotland’s misty dew. Songs of both sea and land resonate to the deep pulse of the bodhrán and the shrill clarity of the tin whistle, their impish airs steeped in the myths and tales of Celtic folklore.
Araëlle turn to well-known epic films to take you on a fantastic journey. Legends: An Epic Journey invites you to rediscover film soundtracks including musical masterpieces from Howard Shore, James Horner, Danny Elfman and Hans Zimmer. In this musical adventure, Araëlle’s voices and harmonies pay a fitting tribute to these cinematographic marvels. Braveheart, Gladiator, Game of Thrones, The Lord of the Rings, Avatar, Pirates of the Caribbean, Edward Scissorhands are some of the worlds explored as this concert unfolds!
When bright lights sparkle in the evening dusk, when fires are lit to warm both homes and hearts, when laughter and joy cheer the winter silence, the magic of Christmas is finally at work. And what better music than Celtic airs to bring out the fairy-tale enchantment of Christmas?
Araëlle add a Celtic touch to these traditional songs, taking us back to our childhoods and stirring the depths of our souls. With the rhythm of the bodhrán, the delicate touch of the harp, the soft tones of the guitar and the spirited joy of the tin whistle and violin, Sarah and Emmanuelle breathe new life into these timeless melodies.
“Dancing Leaves in the autumn sky with a thousand shades colour the hill!” In this concert, with its mystical resonances and echoes of Samhain, Araëlle transport you into a parallel universe, where magic has its place. The enchantment of the autumn colours, the mystery of the night of Samhain, the miracle of the change of season: this concert is an auditory tapestry of this special season, creating a bridge to another world with an atmosphere of magic and mystery. The repertoire comprises Celtic songs with the common theme of a passage into another world, together with original compositions depicting the autumn in all its splendour and plenty of other surprises.
With songs in ancient languages and famous themes from mediaeval fantasy films, Mediaeval Times takes you on a journey through time and space to plunge you into ancient and imaginary worlds. Listen to Araëlle’s voices singing these fantastic legends in mysterious languages – Elvish, Swedish or Old French, even in Latin or Old English – accompanied by the enchanting sound of the harp, the magic of tin and low whistles, the pulsing rhythms of the guitar and bodhrán.
In this concert, you can discover Sarah and Emmanuelle’s personal compositions, combining the influences of ancient, Celtic, film and American folk music. As well as their own writings, you will be able to discover poems from the English-speaking world, with the focus, as always, on vocal harmony. Coloured with eloquent harmonizations and catchy rhythms, these creations are profoundly anchored in our ancestral roots and yet have a timeless character, with instruments and voices interweaving to transport you beyond time.
