A Delightful Collection!
If you are looking for a CD that offers something other than standard Christmas carols, this collection is for you. The songs are beautifully arranged and sung. My personal favorite is Maddy Prior's Cradle Song. My husband and I played this CD over and over during the holidays and look forward to hearing it again next Christmas

Rejoice
I LOVE this Christmas cd (and I don't love very many). It's not too too overproduced, but still sublime. Has an authentic feel - often ethereal and sometimes just a little gritty too. This is the one to curl up with as it snows outside the window. I also love its cousin, "Comfort and Joy".

Wonderful
I absolutely love this cd. The first time I listened to it, its soothing music almost put me to sleep. It's really good for relaxing, and the Christmas songs were some I had never heard of, making the cd new and interesting.

Love it over and over again
This is by far one of my favorite Christmas CDs, one of my favorite Celtic CDs, one of my favorite CDs period. I can listen to it for hours while driving through the farmlands in the US. It has a dreamy quality and my daughter day dreams out the window on our long cross country jaunts. If you enjoy the music in Rob Roy, Braveheart, or Lord of the Rings, you'll enjoy this. My favorite selections are #3 Christ's Child Lullaby, #4 Sou Gan, #9 Spered Hollvedel, and #12 A Midwinter Waltz.

A Christmas CD set apart from the rest
I purchased this CD because of some of the musicians listed on the CD and after listening to some of the excerpts. This is one CD that I have repeatedly listened to this Christmas season. Not only can it be listened to during the holiday season, but throughout the year. Much of the music is not the traditional Christmas music and has an earthy, folk sound to it. Every time I have played this with company here, someone has wanted a copy of it!! If you are looking for Christmas music that doesn't have the commercial sound to it, this is the CD for you!!
