Notes / Reviews
|
Or, The Raiment of the Tale: Songs of the Scottish Gael. It's not often we find a whole album sung in Gaelic, and we've lucked out here! Eilidh has won the Scottish national vocal medal for singing more than once (as has her sister Gillian, who joins in on vocal harmonies here), and it's easy to hear why; her voice is light and airy, and infused with such sweetness and longing, it's simply unbelievable when she self-harmonizes! The 14 songs feature traditional Gaelic material, like a Puirt-a-beul medley, meaning a light-hearted lickety-split bit of nonsense (also known as mouth music), ballads and acappella love poems. Features Alison Kinnaird on Scottish harp... Delightful, and Western audiences who enjoyed the Bulgarian Women's Choir will probably like this as well."
