While it's touching to know Natalie appreciates her fans, her family, her faith, her husband and her new baby, Mary Frances, a recitation of these facts does not make for very interesting listening, especially the second time.
The relative of fiddling great Buddy MacMaster and a. Natalie MacMaster, CM (born June 13, 1972) is an award-winning fiddler from the rural community of Troy in Inverness County, Nova Scotia, Canada who plays. The second comes at the end, on Natalie's self-indulgent track "Interlude," which marries a minimalist fiddle-and-piano composition with what on any other album would be the acknowledgements buried in the liner. Natalie MacMaster is from my own stomping grounds on Cape Breton Island. While it's nice to hear a different take on the overplayed song, the song drags Natalie's momentum to a standstill. One, midway through the recording, is a doleful rendition of "Danny Boy" featuring former Doobie Brother Michael McDonald on vocals. The album does have two missteps, however. Yours Truly, her 10th recording, is another in a long line of exciting benchmarks in Natalie's musical evolution. While her Nova Scotian home boasts an incredible (and, some might say, unfair) number of gifted fiddlers, she, more than any other in this (or, for that matter, any) generation, has brought the island's musical traditions to the world and made traditional music exciting again, both to hear and to play. Natalie, for those who aren't already fans, is the musical ambassador from Cape Breton Island to the world. And, under her guiding hand and watchful eye, and with the assistance of a fine cadre of musicians under her wing, it almost all works to an exceptional degree. Perhaps taking a hint from the playbook of celebrated Irish-American fiddler Eileen Ivers, Natalie digs deeply into the varied branches of jazz, pop and world music. And, while there are certainly touches here and there that harken back to her roots as a pure-drop performer, Yours Truly signals her further growth into a unique and diverse star. The album pays equal tribute to Natalie's native Cape Breton tradition and her own sparkling creativity as a composer and arranger.
