We were lucky enough to see them in concert........2000-11-07

We were lucky enough to see Hart Rouge in concert...an incredible experience. Each member is a uniquely talented vocalist, but the tight harmonies of their "sibling sound" are indescribable. As a group they are diverse, switching flawlessly between French and English, fast and slow, and even throwing in a heart-felt and haunting Spanish ballad. They hold true to their French-Canadian roots, singing a selection of folk songs and Acadian chants. They make unique use of instrumental accompainant...the best of which is the percussion rhythm of Paul's cowboy boots!!

I'd Never Heard of Hart Rogue..........2000-04-14

...not until i happened on this by chance, while searching for something else. i read the reviews and listened to the samples so i took a chance. everything the above reviewers said is true and more. this is the first album i've found in my life that i love EVERY single track!

One of the best CD's we've bought in years........1999-03-30

***** My wife and I had the pleasure of hearing "Hart Rouge" in concert before purchasing "Beaupre's Home". The CD is unquestionably, one of the finest we've bought in years! This Canadian group is a rare find in the world of music. They are exceptional! Their music is "real", it has "roots", and is extremely well performed, well recorded, clean, and very passionate. The bongo played by Michel Dupire is so deep and stunning it literally moves you. Acoustic instruments are sharp, clean and well defined, Uilleann pipes and electric guitar played by Davy Gallant add dimension beyond explanation. Finally, the very best of this CD are the vocals and harmonies performed by sisters Michelle, Suzanne and brother Paul. Their vocies will literally send tingles up and down your spine. "Hart Rouge" is an extraordinarily talented Canadian group.. If you like Acadian, Louisiana, and multi-cultural music, don't pass up this CD. Dave & Bobbie Morrow

If I could only have 1 CD on a desert island . . ........1999-02-18

Multiple language folk music with wonderful harmonies and beautiful lyrics. What I play whenever I'm homesick.

A wonder found by chance.......1998-05-20

When I found this beautiful CD I thought I was taking a chance in buying it but wanted to get something sung in French (a few of the songs on Beaupre's Home are in French, translated in the notes). By now I've listened to this CD over a hundred times. You can hear the touch of the instruments. You can hear the lyrics, in English, French, and Micmac, the latter two translated in the notes. You can hear the lovely voices individually, blending when they should, separating wonderfully when they should. I wish I could think of a better way to describe this high praise: the music is not over-produced. A couple of the songs are traditional. (They do a traditional French song sung by the McGarrigle Sisters; Hart Rouge's arrangment is arguably better.) The original songs are haunting, with a kind of existential lyricism. If I had to choose ten of my CDs to keep, Beaupre's Home would be one of them. It's one of the happiest purchases of any kind I have ever made. I can hardly wait until they put out another CD.
