5.0 out of 5 stars The Celtic Minstrel, February 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Celtic Minstrel (Audio CD)
This CD is the best for de-stressing. I just received James Galway's Celtic Minstrel tunes and can't get enough of the beautiful guitar, cello, flute, violin, keyboard & percussion combinations.

4.0 out of 5 stars James Galway achieves a haunting rendition of Irish Music..., June 15, 1999
This review is from: Celtic Minstrel (Audio CD)
Most of his songs provide for relaxingly slow and soft versions of the Irish classics we have come to love. However, some really 'pick up' with the Chieftains adding to Galway's flute with exciting bagpipes or marching snare drums. And though I was only slightly disappointed with his rendition of "Danny Boy", the CD continues to be my most-listened to.

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best of Galway, May 19, 2001
This review is from: Celtic Minstrel (Audio CD)
I love this CD and will listen to it over and over! A lot of flute music including some of Galway's other works are nice but sound like showing off of how fast and difficult it is. This CD sounds so natural you can imagine yourself actually being in Ireland listening to it. The pieces with the Chieftans lilt in the air with the beautiful traditional melodies. Even the well-known "Danny Boy" is played with an original feel that doesn't leave you thinking you've heard this a million times before. Galway fan, flute lover or Celtic aficianado - you'll enjoy this!
