As we discussed the many changes in the Music Business with Loreena McKennitt, it made me wonder about the Music Business a little more. What new markets in the music business are on the horizon or are up and coming?

Also, I was curious in particular about music/vocals and storytelling combined together.

There are so many music markets out there. I would certainly to like to hear everyone's thoughts or knowledge about new music markets (if any) and the idea of music/vocals and storytelling combined together!

I did find another person who also follows the storytelling and music route. I was just introduced to Harpist Deborah Hensen-Conan. Her music is described mostly as Jazz. However, she incorporates celtic music, jazz and storytelling (operattas) together with her singing. I did listen to some clips of her music and I did see her videos on her site. She is out of this world. Quite amazing. She plays the electric harp! But in any case, I really do like this form of music composition if you will, or music creations of storytelling. Eeker Big Grin

Hmmmm... I'm not sure who Loreena is Big Grin
Just kidding. Do you know any other musicians who follow this same suit?

do these songs ring a bell?
She Moved Through the Fair
Annachie Gordon
The Lady of Shalott
The Bonny Swans
Good King Wenceslas
The Highwayman
The English Ladye and the Knight

Loreena is already a master at musical storytelling! I think she is fantastic. Big Grin

I wish she would share her fantasticness with us Australians and come here on her next tour!

Luv Jesse
