"In Celtic cosmogony, the power of a dream is as real as a footprint"
Hugo Pratt – Corto Maltese
- les celtiques –


"Imagine a red haired Celt from Brittany, just out of a Broceliande tale, with a voice that hovers somewhere between the high registers of Kate Bush, the purity of Sinead O Connor and the mysticism of Enya and you’ll have a good idea what this remarkable young harpist, arranger of traditional songs and original songwriter sounds like.”

Singer and Harpist Cecile Corbel was born in Brittany, in the Finistère, at the very west of Europe…

In her teens, after learning the guitar, she discovered the Celtic harp.

The young Breton composer and singer now shares her « pop folk Celtic » music with her musicians in France and abroad…
From Estonia to Burma, from Australia to Germany, but also in Belgium, Switzerland, Italia, Netherlands, Czech republic, Poland, USA, Cecile’s harp and voice have already bewitched thousands of people…

Eternal vibrations, powerful culture,
charismatic personality, Cecile sometimes becomes a storyteller, her harp transforms into a magician, for a trip out-of-time. This is beautiful, accessible, cutting-edge folk music.

Her third album “SongBook vol 2” was released in 2008.

She also appeared as the heroine in Alan Simon’s new show entitled “Anne de Bretagne” last spring.

2010 is the start of new projects and collaborations for the young harpist–traveler: tours in Germany, Japan and in the USA and more than one hundred concerts across Europe…

Next January she will appear in the show “Excalibur” (www.excalibur-show.com) on tour in Germany.
