Alan Stivell
Alan Stivell is the contemporary harpist who originated the concept of Celtic Music and was responsible for popularizing it since 1970s.
Despite the wealth and breadth of “Celtic Music,” which is dear to Alan Stivell’s heart, it does not encompass all of the aspects of his music, for Alan Stivell is definitely a believer in “crossover” music. He is and has always been for blending cultures and musical styles.
While Alan Stivell popularized modern Breton and Celtic music, he is widely considered to be one of the forerunners of several musical genres especially World Music, with his seminal album “Reflets” in 1970.
He is also a great bardic harp-maker (he now performs with his latest prototype).
