Review by Stuart Colman

Alfred Wirth's album "Schlesische Bauden Klänge Neue Folge" is a stunning collection of traditional folk music from the region of Silesia. The album features a range of instruments, including accordion, violin, and clarinet, and showcases a variety of musical styles.

The album opens with the lively "Schlesierlied," a rousing tune that sets the tone for the rest of the collection. Other standout tracks include "Oberschlesische Polka," which features a driving accordion melody, and "Masurenlied," a haunting ballad that showcases Wirth's virtuosic violin playing.

Throughout the album, Wirth's arrangements are both respectful of tradition and innovative. He seamlessly blends elements of classical music with folk melodies, creating a sound that is both timeless and contemporary.
