RYAN FRANCESCONI & MIRABAI PEART – ROAD TO PALIOS

Road To Palios is a stirring seven-track instrumental journey featuring beautiful duets between an acoustic guitar and violin, supplied by Ryan Francesconi and his partner, Mirabai Peart respectively. The arrangements are touching, the compositions inspired by a real-life journey to the Greek island of Lesvos. It’s almost as if the listener is embarking into the heart and soul of this couple and the memories of their trip, intruding only for a moment before the music makes one feel welcome in their world. Pay particular attention to the almost nine-minute-long title track, Road To Palios, it’s something special.
