We've already spoken on this thread about Kan Ha Diskan, a traditionnal Breton way of singing. Torkad is a new band that play this particular sort of music in Fest Noz (night parties in Breton). smile.gif

Hi Celtica!

Nice looking site, but for some reason I couldn't get the Listen menu item to open so that I could hear them! sad.gif What does Torkad mean in English?

Hello Wizard !

According to my on-line Breton dictionnary, Torkad simply means group or band... wink.gif

Kan Ha Diskan is a very special way of singing, glad you like it smile.gif .

Did you hear the post about Boxty I put in the "recommanded music" thread ? I know it's not obvious with their name and the sort of music they play (irish music and most of their songs are in english) but it's a Breton group starting to be famous. I love them. walkman.gif
