Get it! This is music.For thinking and life.

"I will confess that I have heard just over 3/4 of this CD and it was nothing less than outstanding listening. I immediatly purchased it. The music is what I feel classical music is meant to be. It relaxes you, promotes genuine thought, feelings, and quite simply it is as peaceful as new music gets. I highly reccomend it. Somehow the music reminded me of Samual Barber and Beethoven both. I think you will like it."
Beautiful Music for an Endearing Film

Bill Whelan's orchestral soundtrack for "Dancing At Lughnasa" is simply gorgeous. The music aptly conveys the feelings of longing, alienation, sadness, and uncertainty, as well as times of joyful exuberance, as revealed by the film's endearing characters.



I find that the music also perfectly suggests the transition of the winding-down of summer and the coming of autumn, just as the film's characters also face a severe change of season in their personal lives.



Even without the wonderful film, the music that Bill Whelan has created here stands on its own as a cohesive, moving, emotive work.



Highly recommended!
