"...Reunion brings it all back to the forefront of my mind: the shivers, the chills, the delightful sounds created by this talented musician."

- Carrie Breckenridge

Daniel Lapp

Born and raised in Prince George, British Columbia, Daniel Lapp learned the joy of fiddle music from his grandfather, five uncles and numerous accordion playing aunts. Family events were excuses to play music and he carries this tradition into a new era and contemporary culture. Throughout his diverse musical career, Daniel has learned to play numerous instruments in many musical genres. He studied jazz at Humber College in Toronto and received a BMus degree from the University of Victoria specializing in trumpet, composition and world music. His jazz influences led him to form the dynamic quartet, Lappelectro, in 2001. Lappelectro fuses experimental elements of various influences including jazz, folk, and electronica.

Reunion is the first fiddle album released by Canadian Multi-instrumentalist, Daniel Lapp. It features 10 of Daniel's original tunes as well as offering some unusual arrangements of a few old standards. At times, your toe will be tapping, but all of the music is not what one might expect from a 'fiddle' album. The genre is explored a step further with his unique 'folk trumpet' and with his 11 eclectic friends. These incude many well known names in the UK celtic/traditional music scene and all are musicians with whom Daniel has shared a tune or two on his travels over the last dozen years. Hence, it is a musical Reunion among friends old and new.
