4.0 out of 5 stars The BEST of the Celtic Woman solo albums, January 15, 2006

By	K. Hand (CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you are looking for a beautiful addition to your CD library, then this is the CD for you. After buying and loving my PBS Celtic Woman CD I was thrilled to see all of the solo albums at my local bookstore. This is the only one I bought and I know I made the correct choice. Chloe's clear-as-a-bell tone is the kind of voice you want to play again and again. The song choices are also what makes this CD a success. For me, sometimes the Celtic songs (on other CDs) start to run together a little too much, which is why I appreciate that this CD is mostly in English and the song choices and song order was thoughtfully done. You will not regret this purchase. Enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoy this celtic crystal-clear voiced soprano, January 11, 2006

By	David Hankerson (Melbourne, FL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Chloe's solo CD is arguably the closest to the sound and production style of the mega-hit "Celtic Woman"(CW) CD from last year. Her crystalline soprano stands out on songs also featured previously in CW including "Walking on the Air", "Nella Fantasia", "Someday", "One Worlds" and "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring"(which was featured in the PBS special and DVD but not on the CW CD.

She adds a fresh spin to the oft used songs in pop-opera circles, "The Prayer"[Watson,Groban, Dion, Bocelli], "Vincent" and "To Where You Are"[Groban]. She also takes on some pure classical compositions including Franck's "Panis Angelicus" and Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" and a interesting vocal to Vivaldi's "Rain" from the "The Four Season's". She also adds the beautiful song "Winter Light" from the movie "The Secret Garden"[also recorded by Linda Ronstadt and later by Sarah Brightman}.

Chloe's enchanting vocal quality will make this CD a must-have. ALthough she does not break new ground, this CD will serve as a great companion piece to "Celtic Woman" and is my personal favorite of the 5 artists featured in Celtic Women.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite of the Celtic Woman albums, March 11, 2007

By	K. Corn "reviewer" (Indianapolis,, IN United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

Not only is there wide diversity of song material here, but much of it is simply haunting. This is an album that is soft and accessable without sounding overly sentimental. In short, it is music that can be listened to b men and women and it soothes the soul. Listen to the song Walking in The Air, for instance. Sound familiar? Maybe so, because it was used in a lovely animated movie called The Snowman. Other songs will sound equally familiar but subtly transcendent when sung by Chloe.
