Here's another cure for stress - a nice straight fiddle album with a gentle piano accompaniment.
There's a fair smattering of new tunes from both players but don't let act as a negative factor - all of the tunes 'hit the spot' and are blended nicely into a strong selection of week-kent favourites.
This sounds exactly what it says, two professionals being professional and producing the goods (or should that be shortbread?)
Have a listen.
