The track list includes eight arrangements by Ventus Machina's clarinetist James Kalyn, including Canadian folk hits by Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchel and Gordon Lightfoot; tunes by local bluegrass legend Ray Legere; and traditional songs that have been chosen by the members of Ventus Machina to represent their heritage and first musical influences. Guests on the album include bluegrass fiddler and mandolin player Ray Legere, clarinetist Andrew George and percussionist Joel Cormier. Formed in 2011, the New Brunswick-based woodwind quintet Ventus Machina quickly became a major player on Canada's east coast classical music scene. Their flexible and dynamic style of performance-often presenting themed programs that at once engage, entertain, and educate-continues to attract and delight increasingly diverse audiences. Classically based and uncompromising in artistic quality, Ventus Machina makes regular excursions into other genres including jazz, opera, Latin and pop, challenging themselves and surprising their audiences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Our Roots Medley-Goldberg \"Variegations\" \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Our Roots Medley-Koppången \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Our Roots Medley-Edmund Fitzgerald \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Our Roots Medley-How Great Thou Art \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Our Roots Medley-Les Raftsmen \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Blackbird, Fantasy Scherzo \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Traveller's Breakdown \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Doin' Repairs \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Calm Before the Storm \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Celtic Suite-The Whistling Farmer (Jig) \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Celtic Suite-Blue Mountain Waltz \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Celtic Suite-Trip to Windsor (Reel) \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Circle Game \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Four Strong Winds, Folk Fantasy for Woodwinds \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Bird on the Wire\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
