Music of the Camino


The following are a few suggestions that we found that help conjure up those Camino days while we daydream from home.

Paul Tobey

Road to Santiago Suite CD - A Musical Journey Through Spain NEW!

Inspired by Tobey's 850 km trek along the Camino de Santiago in Spain. 9 movements are a melange of jazz, classical, world, latin and folk music with lively themes ranging from a
Bossa Nova to a Salsa.

Alan Lomax-The Spanish Recordings: Galicia - 2001 - Rounder Records CDROUN1761
Galicia Songs for beating flax and cutting stones, wickedly barbed song duels, village pilgrimage songs, and popular dance tunes can be heard on this recording made in remote villages of Galicia during the raw, cold winter of 1952. Alan Lomax made these historic recordings during the Franco regime. These songs and dance melodies constitute a portrait of rural Spain's richly varied musical life, dispelling the common stereotypes of Spanish folk music.

Impressions of a Pilgrimage
Impressions of A Pilgrimage
Dick Le Mair

Just released. This is one of the very, very, few recordings that feature the organ in the Cathedral of Santiago. According to the liner notes it is one of only two. It is a beautiful blend of modern and traditional pieces. The listener is transported across the camino and finds themselves traveling with pilgrims of all the ages. It is well worth a listen.

Conducted by Dick Le Mair
Organist Aart Bergwerff
EMI 7243-4767122-7

Oliver Schroer: Camino
(Big Dog Music, 2006)

Solo Violin and Ambient Recordings from the Camino de Santiago ‑ the musical and photographic record of a thousand kilometre trek along the Camino de Santiago.  Photos by Peter Coffman

Camino brings together the best of these recordings. Oliver's violin sings in these magnificent Romanesque churches, and the sense of place is strong ‑ pilgrims praying, children playing, birds, bells, footsteps, passing snatches of conversation, and the voices of the buildings themselves.

Oliver Schroer: Camino ‑ a sumptuous package featuring a 28 page booklet of Peter Coffman's stunning B/W photographs with text in four languages by Peter and Oliver.
