Noy Just A Holiday Recording
Well, it is a holiday recording but......
For those of us who need to own all of Loreenas material this work is a must.
I have allways wanted to hear Loreena sing "Star of the County Down" and was suprised by the treatment with "Seven Rejoices of Mary". I think she consider singing it.
A winter garden only suffered from being short, this work compleats the circle.
beautiful
It is a wonderful CD from a very talented singer. All of her CDs are beautiful.
Excellent
One thing I love about Loreena McKennitt is her ability to find old forgotten tunes, make them her own, and bring them to us. She writes melodies that sound as if they have been around for centuries.
Far too many "holiday" albums nowadays sound alike, in part because they use the same tunes over and over...Frosty, Rudolph, and Santa. We forget that Christmas has been celebrated with music that goes back a long time. We also forget whose birthday we're really celebrating. Loreena remembers both of these facts by bringing old carols from around the world and giving us "new" songs to celebrate Christmas.
