I play this cd ESPECIALLY at Christmas,
By Mary Zee (Illinois, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Celtic Lace (Audio CD)
I heard this cd at a Hallmark store once, and I asked them for the title and went out to purchase it immediately. I love this Cd and play it most often at Christmas...To me it sounds like the kind of music that should really express Christmas sounds and moods of years gone by... when Christmas had a less commercial feeling and more serene and peaceful time.

Beautiful, Riveting Celtic Harps,
This review is from: Celtic Lace (Audio CD)
This is beautiful, elegant instrumental Celtic music. Ceoltoiri breathes new life into the classics. They are as new today as they were hundreds of years ago. I've owned many Celtic discs over the last ten years. This is one of the vital few I've kept. My favorite is track 3!! For fans of Ceoltoiri, I also recommend the work of Joemy Wilson! I give it five stars because this is in the top 2% of its genre. I only wish there was more of a percussive/bassy backbone to it.
