Description:
A Treasury of Irish Mystical Songs. On this immaculate recording, Nóirín Ní Riain, renowned for her recordings with the monks of Glenstal, recreates 19 songs in the nearly-lost sean nós Gaelic vocal style. Her singing is like a voice from heaven, of startling clarity, blissful and evocative of profound spiritual grace. Some of the oldest music on this planet has survived through the music of Ireland. Accompanied by pipe organ, Indian harmonium, pennywhistle and the celebrated voices of the Benedictine monks of Glenstal Abbey. Recorded on the holy feast day of Saint Ciaran, this is music steeped in Irish mysticism, music that reverberates long afterward in the listener's mind.
