"When griping grief the heart doth wound,
and doleful dumps the mind opresses,
then music, with her silver sound,
with speedy help doth lend redress."
William Shakespeare
When I was searching Youtube for examples of Scottish folk music for my last post, I stumbled across this video, and I was literally amazed. The group is called "Celtic Woman".
These women sing with the voices of angels.
It is a song often heard around Christmas time, but I just couldn't wait until Christmas to share this beautiful music:
Incidentally, when I was sharing this with a friend, I pronounced the name of the group, "Seltic woman", and was immediately corrected. The correct pronunciation, I was told, is "Keltic woman"
I said, "Not in Boston".
Happy Thanksgiving Mark!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, Mark. I'm thankful for your blog.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, my friend.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you and your's!
And a gracious Thanksgiving to thee, O thou, my ever decreasing blog commenters.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I'm guilty, too. Perhaps the shrinking number of comments are directly related to how many times I comment elsewhere, eh?
Why no comments on the music? Doesn't anybody share my enthusiasm for these lovely ladies and their music?

May I recommend Connie Dover? She's American but has done some remarkable work

ReplyDeleteAn oversight indeed. I went to YouTube, where I can view these vids without the start/stop action that happens when I click on the offerings at blogs. I checked out the one you posted as well as a couple of others and these ladies are indeed angelic in their interpretations of songs. I've seen them before and your post has awakened me to their awesome talents. Thanks.
I can't get enuff of these broads!! Especially that little fiddle player hopping around...
