Title: Rich, lush, etherial - but is it really "new"?
Product review: I stumbled across Celtic Woman on PBS last night and was captivated by the lovely sound. I will buy the DVD. However, it all had a "been there/done that" vibe to it. The Enya selections sounded like Enya's arrangements, "Theme From Harry's Game" sounded like Clannad, and all the arrangements sounded like reprised Riverdance. Those aren't bad things, of course; the ladies and their voices/playing are lovely and the chorus and musicians are excellent. It just sounded to me like 5 new performers doing Enya, Maire Brennan/Clannad, Katie McMahon/Anuna, Eileen McMaster/Carol Lavelle, etc. They most certainly did it well. For me, "There's A Place For Us" (exquisite) and "You Raise Me Up" were more exciting.
