Norman Lachapelle: L’irlandaise and Improvisation
Luthier Pierre Erizias sent me this video of Norman Lachapelle playing the tune “L’irlandaise”.
The song is sheerly musical, and not a note is misplaced.
“I think Normand is not getting the props he deserves,” Erizias said. “He is a refined and seasoned musician that could walk easily with the best out there for sure.”
I think I have to agree!
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
