Album Review
Written and recorded by brothers Mychael & Jeff Danna between their other scoring projects, A Celtic Tale is the soundtrack to an imaginary film of the Irish legend of Deirdre. Both the album and the legend reflect many aspects of love and sorrow. The Danna brothers mix Celtic folk, symphonic, and ambient music into a distinctive and fitting setting for Deirdre's star-crossed story. Though she is betrothed to a king, Deirdre finds her true love; she and her lover are exiled. When they try to return to their land, Deirdre's lover is killed, and she is imprisoned by the king she was to marry. Love and war blend in Deirdre's story; similarly, the music combines authentic Celtic instruments such as fiddle, tin whistle, flute, uilleann and highland pipes, and wire-strung harp with orchestral power and electronic atmospherics. Both listenable and powerful, A Celtic Tale showcases the Dannas' skill for creating emotionally accessible, technically beautiful music.
Customer Reviews
Simply amazing
One of the best albums I think I have ever listened to. It is very inspiring, and emotional. It gives me chills every tiem I listen to it. I am writing a book and it is set in the time period of this story, this music has helped inspire much of my own tale.
Great Music
One of the best Celtic Albums I've heard.
Time-Tested Music
I bought this album in my junior year of high school in 1998. The fact that I still listen listen to this CD after so many years speaks volumes to its staying power. Easily the best Celtic album I've ever heard.
