Music that soothes the soul / by rita davern

Background music plays a big role in documentary films. It enables a film to evoke an emotional response in viewers. For Burren Girl, we wanted to combine the sadness of a lost past with music so beautiful that listening actually soothes the soul. Our music communicates a backdrop of grief wrapped in brightness, spirit and hope. What a combination! Childsplay violinists, playing instruments made by Bob Childs, create this kind of musical magic in many of their compositions. Enjoy watching and listening to them at these links:

Composer/violinist Hanneke Cassel
