Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Fueled by healthy public appetite for traditional melodies and quasi-ethnic roots, the crossover genre continues to flourish with this debut release from Ireland's Celtic Woman ensemble. The brainchild of Sharon Browne, Dave Kavanaugh (founders of Ireland's successful Celtic Collections label) and young Riverdance touring company musical director David Downes, CW's five young women musicians and vocalists offer up an ever pleasant, Eire-savvy fusion of folk, pop and classical influences. Avoiding the intrusive, club-beat/sex kitten window dressing of Bond, the ensemble tackles material that ranges from the expected (spare, lovely covers of "Danny Boy" and "Ave Maria") to more adventurous fare like "Nella Fantasia" (Ennio Morricone's vocal adaptation of his rapturous theme from The Mission) and Enya's "Orinoco Flow." Elsewhere, "The Butterfly" offers up fiddle-fueled take on their Riverdance parallels (which also get a workout on the live bonus tracks), if renditions of Downes' originals like "One World" and "Send Me a Song" and "Someday" from Disney's animated Hunchback of Notre Dame hew slavishly to the middle of the road -- which largely seems the album's easy-listening intention. --Jerry McCulley

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - celtic music
I am sceptic of what people call celtic music today but this cd of celtic woman brings out the true celt in us all.If you enjoy the sounds of the celtic artist Enya then you will enjoy this cd.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Features the Incredible Fiddler Mairead Nesbitt
This is a wonderful CD containing a variety of traditional Irish, classical and contemporary music. The majority contains vocals by some of the most talented soloists Ireland has to offer, but some of the tracks are fantastic instrumental numbers by the groups violinist, Mairead Nesbitt. She will delight you with her traditional sound and her mastery of the instrument.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ireland at its finest!
This group is pure magic to both see and hear. David Downes is the genius behind the presentation and we can only look forward to his continued brilliant contribution to the music world.

Please try this CD! I know how much I have enjoyed it. I would love other people to hear their gaelic voices and enjoy it too.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Enchanting Sound:
The enchanting celtic sound flows perfectly from each song in this album: Some are up-beat and lively, and some are slow and solemn - but each song captures the essence of the celtic spirit. The soloists differ greatly in individual style and ability, yet each performs their own song with a sound that makes you think, "Perfect" in every sense of the word. If you love celtic music or light classical, you will love this album.

Nella Fantasia is a classic, and the young singer's control ... Read More
