Biography

Patrick Ball - Theater of Legend, Celtic Harp & Story -www.patrickball.com

Patrick Ball was born and raised in California and gave little thought to such things as where his ancestors came from. He went to school and supposed, when he thought about it at all, that he would one day be a lawyer, like his father. But he studied music from time to time and over the years developed a nodding… Read more in Amazon's Patrick Ball Store

5.0 out of 5 stars An outstanding album, May 22, 1998
By 
This review is from: Celtic Harp, Vol. 3: Secret Isles (Audio CD)
I think this is Ball's strongest album: years of touring and recording have made him fully at ease with his instrument (his earlier albums have a few rough edges), and the selection of mostly unfamiliar tunes is excellent. The arrangements are attractive and varied enough to keep up the listener's interest, and the performances are masterful without being slick. And, as always, the wire-strung harp has a clarity and openness that transforms whatever is played on it. All of Ball's albums are good, but this one approaches perfection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Harp Music, July 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Celtic Harp, Vol. 3: Secret Isles (Audio CD)
Patrick Ball, renowned Celtic harp player, has filled this CD with wonderful, soothing music. I would highly recommend anything he has produced to those who enjoy the pleasure of music produced on the Celtic harp.

3.0 out of 5 stars More for a Harp Enthusiast than the Average Listener, December 3, 2005

Gabrielle Rhodes (Illinois - U.S.A.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Celtic Harp, Vol. 3: Secret Isles (Audio CD)
Solo harp isn't my interest, so this isn't one of my favorite recordings. I found that it does become background music because one song seems to run into the next. The one redeeming song, one of my all time Carolan favorites, is "Carolan's Concerto."

Patrick Ball's playing is skillful, and I think that this would be a good recording for people who play the harp to use to learn both songs and technique.
