To Book The Shire for Concerts, Weddings, and Feasts of any kind please contact: Per prenotare i The Shire per Concerti, Matrimoni e Feste di ogni tipo, contattate: Marzio Venuti Mazzi (english speaking) - (+39) 320/0311821 marziovenuti@gmail.com Luca Verzulli - (+39) 347/1307739 luca.verzulli@gmail.com The Shire Band came up from the common passion of its members for traditional Irish music, its pourpoes is to spread the knowledge of this kind of music, going from the production of historical groups to the more recent celtic survey. The Shire's repertoire is made up of jigs, reel, polkas, hornpipes, airs and songs, going from more infectious moments to those more solemn and intimate. Most of the care is given to technical aspect, style, arrangements and tunes research. The Shire band use the classical instruments of the Irish tradition: fiddle, flute, whistle, uillean pipe, harp and the "most recent addition to traditional Irish music", the guitar. A tipical show is varoius and fits very well in ballrooms and chambers situations as well. Our is not an vapid imitation with the sole pourpose, sometimes typical in many non-native-irish bands (unfortunately especially here in Italy) of "challenge the Irish"; instead our approach is to pay a humble tribute to a wonderful, evocative, and pretty much "rockish" music. We believe that, with its syncopated rythm and catchy melodies, it gave a very big influence to modern popular and rock music, so beside enjoyning it a lot we honorate it spreading it the best we can. La formazione dei The Shire nasce dalle comune passione dei suoi componenti per la musica tradizionale irlandese e si propone di far conoscere e diffondere la musica strumentale di quella nazione, spaziando tra la produzione dei gruppi considerati ormai storici e le sonorità del panorama più recente. Il repertorio dei The Shire si compone di gighe, reels, polke, hornpipes, arie e canzoni in un’alternanza di ritmi trascinanti e momenti più raccolti. Particolare cura viene data agli aspetti tecnici, stilistici, agli arrangiamenti e alla ricerca dei brani. I The Shire utilizzano gli strumenti classici della tradizione irlandese: violino, flauto, whistle e cornamusa, accompagnati da chitarra o bouzouki. Lo spettacolo, che alterna le atmosfere evocative delle slow airs a ritmi di danza più coinvolgenti, sempre nel pieno rispetto dei canoni stilistici, ben si adatta sia a situazioni di festa che a concerti di tipo più cameristico e solenni.
