CELTIC JOY (CD, 41min)
“Although mostly from the Christian tradition,” explains Nóirín, “for us, each song is an echo above and beyond the sounds of the universe.” Recorded in the monastic chapel of Glencairn Abbey in County Waterford with only sparse organ accompaniment, these 17 tracks include notable classics such as “the Coventry Carol,” “Ave Maria,” and “Kyrie Eleison,” plus seldom heard songs “Lead Kindly Light,” “Caminus Ardebat,” and more. Nóirín is joined by her sons Eoin and Micheál O’Súilleabháin to present an album for the Christmas season that offers a getaway from the familiar yuletide CDs. What better way to capture the essence of the Christmas season than through the kindred voices of a mother and her two sons?
