5.0 out of 5 stars Rich and evocative!, December 4, 2002

This review is from: Celtic Romance (Audio CD)

More musical storytelling by the Danna brothers, their talented instrumental soloists, soprano vocalist, a full orchestra, and the Ritual Choir of the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Toronto. With all of that, the music of "The Legend of Liadain and Curithir" remains surprisingly intimate and accessible, ever varying in form and instrumentation. The Dannas continue the tradition of their earlier release, "A Celtic Tale: The Legend of Deirdre", interweaving engaging, Celtic-inspired melodies with lush accompaniments to evoke moods from celebration to sorrow, mystery to bold adventure. There's no narrated version for this release--just the wonderful music. Other similarly compelling "soundtracks" to historical and fantasy legends include David and Diane Arkenstone's "Avalon: A Celtic Legend" and "Music Inspired by Middle Earth", and Jeff Johnson and Brian Dunning's "Byzantium: The Book of Kells and St. Aidan's Journey", and "Music of Celtic Legends: The Bard and the Warrior". Buy all six and put them on a multi-CD mixer for hours of inspiring journeys through time and imagination!

5.0 out of 5 stars Have a tissue at the ready, September 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Celtic Romance (Audio CD)

This story is as Celtic as it gets! It has it all: The Church, Vikings, Pilgrims, dreams, rain, horses, death, lost love, and tragedy (of course). I just stumbled onto this CD a few weeks ago. It has enchanted me ever since. If you do have this CD in your possession, do this...listen to it al the way through, then read the story in the case, then listen to it again. This work is to cry for!

5.0 out of 5 stars Otherwordly and Moving, June 21, 2003

This review is from: Celtic Romance (Audio CD)

This was my first CD by Mychael and Jeff Danna- and not my last. A truly wonderful collection of music. The vocals are superlative! Celtic Romance is an essential CD for anyone who loves Celtic music--if you love Irish lore too, that is icing on the cake.

This CD draws you into the story of Lladain and Curithur on an emotional level, and takes you to ancient Ireland on a musical adventure.

I will be giving this CD as a gift to family and friends that enjoy outstanding Celtic / Classical music.
