"I confess that it was the beautiful, archaic cover art that really prompted me to buy this CD; I assumed that the music would reflect the sensitively rendered Celtic cover: put simply, it did. This CD contains the delicate poetry of the Celtic musical style, which seems to hearken back to an earlier -- perhaps even ancient -- time, while still paying tribute to some of the season's traditional favorites (We Three Kings, Ding Ding! Dong! Merrily on High, Here We Come A-Wassailing, Once in Royal David's City); as well as to a number of lesser known musical selections -- such as (my favorite) The Wexford Carol, Masters in this Hall, The Gower Wassail, and so on. If you are like me, and feel the need during this special time of year, to reach far back beyond the crush of the modern world, then this CD will be a balm to your soul."

Best Christmas music I own!
