  • Description

    This compilation, 'From The Mountaintop', is another hallmark in traditional music. It is the outgrowth of an earlier collaboration when award-winning, classically trained cellist Dave Eggar came to Appalachia and recorded with one of its seminal figures, Dr. Ralph Stanley.

    Since then, Dave Eggar and Deoro (Eggar's trio with Chuck Palmer and Tom Pirozzi) have returned and performed numerous times, becoming "kinfolk" to musicians like Noah Wall, Tyler Hughes, Jake Baine, and Tommy Norris. That pilgrimage, in 2010, began Dave Eggar's journey home to Appalachia and her music. This CD is a result of that crossing.



    Part of the Chesky Binaural + Series, all recorded with a single microphone, the band appears right before you with this spacious, lush and multi-dimensional recording.
