About
Maelasta was formed during the summer of 2003 after a chance meeting between Matthew McAllister, the duo's guitarist, and violinist Feargus Hetherington. Highlight's include the duo's luscious arrangement of Cailín na Gruaige Doinne and equally lyrical arrangements of Piazzolla's Libertango and Egberto Gismonti's Agua e Vinho.
Recorded at Crail Parish Church on the 26th March 2005.
