5.0 out of 5 stars The Soul of Ireland, March 16, 2004

If you love Ireland, you will love this CD, for the very soul of Ireland, its spirit of joy and its enchanting gift of melody are both here. The violins weave their musical lines like threads of pure gold and silver. Believe me, you will never regret owning this recording and recommending it to your friends. By the way, you don't have to be Irish to feel the way I do. You can even be Italian, which is what I am, and feel the same way.

5.0 out of 5 stars The two players are an excellent compliment to each other, April 9, 1999

This review is from: Melodies of Ireland (Audio CD)

As I have said above, the two players really play as one, it is plain to see why they are Ireland's if not europe's top mother and daughter duo. Their depth and tone are astounding.It's great to see such harmony in players. Some of the arrangments really are unique, some of the pieces are unique and with the quality of the arrangement the music is truly enhanced.
