    Re: Laura Cortese

    Thanks for this posting. I, so far, haven't learned how to put YouTube videos onto this site. I think Laura's playing is clean & crisp, would have preferred her playing with other stringed instruments, not piano. Does she ever play bluegrass, & where in USA is she from? Joan

      Re: Laura Cortese

      According to Wikipedia, Laura Cortese is an American singer, songwriter, and fiddler. She was born in San Francisco and attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, where she is currently based.

      Cortese regularly performs solo, with Tao Rodríguez-Seeger in The Anarchist Orchestra, and with Hanneke Cassel and Lissa Schneckenburger in Halali. In the past she has played with acts including Uncle Earl, Band of Horses and Pete Seeger. She is also a co-founder of the Boston Celtic Music Festival.

      The video posted earlier was from her 2004 album "Hush" recorded when she would most likely have been in her early twenties. I would imagine that her producer would have chosen the instruments that accompanied her.
