Maybe you fancy experiencing some traditional Breton music? One of the most internationally recognised performers of traditional Breton folk music is Alan Stivell. Alan Stivell is a passionate advocate for the Breton culture and language.

His songs are a mixture of Breton, Celtic and English folk with a fair sample of his own work. For me the early albums are his best work - the fire and passion was at its highest. The early work falls into two categories - seriously wonderful harp music (Reflets, E Lagonned) and exciting and energetic folk-rock music (In Dublin, Olympia Concert).
