Second only to Riverdance as an international Irish showbiz phenomenon, previous installments of this Platinum-selling extravaganza have become beloved PBS standards. The original buxom quartet of female singers, Lisa, Maev, Orla, and Chloe, have duly been joined by Hayley and are, as usual, backed by a full symphony orchestra and choir, plus enough traditional instruments (the house fiddler, Mairead, is a powerhouse) to keep things legit. The material ranges from folkloric ("Dulaman" is best known from Clannad's legendary rendering), to a standard from another Celtic nation ("Caledonia," Dougie McLean's love letter to his native Scotland), to classical lite (Handel's poignant "Laschia Ch'io Pianga"), to movie hits ("Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in a delicately lovely, a cappella, close-harmony treatment), to homegrown New Age (Enya's "Newgrange"). Most tracks are produced to turn, presented in the aural equivalent of Technicolor or day-glo, in which colors pop while diverging ever so slightly from nature. In short, although the album offers fresh material, it covers old ground -- but this is exactly what the act's target audience expects and desires. Fans of acoustic folk would likely find the prevailing aesthetic a touch garish, but fans of Sarah Brightman and Il Divo will be diverted and thrilled. The deluxe package offers four bonus tracks, three of them live, plus a silver claddagh charm. --Christina Roden Celtic Woman Photos More from Celtic Woman

 Lacking some of the songs October 6, 2008
Nemeseos (Oregon, OH)
from the DVD. Missing was "Somewhere", "Ceili" and others. This CD sounds like it was produced in the studio and not taken directly from the DVD, which is marvelous. It lacks the spontaneity(sp?) of the live version.
great music August 29, 2008
Mr. Paul E. Boulet
my wife, my 7 yr old and myself all agree this is terrific, hauntingly beautiful music...
 Excellent August 5, 2008
Karen Agaston (Vancouver)
I have seen them in concert, and they are excellent. I enjoy completely everything they record.
Features Irish Fiddler Mairead Nesbitt July 31, 2008
Purple Violin (USA)
This is a wonderful CD containing a variety of traditional Irish, classical and contemporary music. The majority contains vocals by some of the most talented soloists Ireland has to offer, but some of the tracks are fantastic instrumental numbers by the groups violinist, Mairead Nesbitt. She will delight you with her traditional sound and her mastery of the instrument.
As good on this CD as in person July 17, 2008
Licinda Jean Mytych (Baltimore, Maryland)
It's hard to believe that these women are so talented. They take your breath away. I can honestly say they are as good on this CD as they were in concert. Some songs are so incredible they bring me to tears. Great gift item to give that special person in your life who loves music.
