Celtic Joy
Irish music teacher and scholar Noirin Ni Riain is gifted with a beautifully crisp soprano voice that lends itself beautifully to sacred music. Celtic Joy features that voice prominently, with backing from her sons Eoin and Micheal O'Suilleabhain. The selections are mostly performed a cappella, using the acoustics of Glencairn Abbey in County to amplify their voices and give them a heavenly glow. Ni Riain's song selection is comprised of traditional liturgical music, along with renditions of "Coventry Carol," "Ave Maria" and the stirring Mozart choral piece "Ave Verum Corpus." A truly beautiful album, Celtic Joy will give you a sense of the loving spirit of the Christmas holiday.
