"…Beautiful playing, pure sounds. A great collection for celtophiles." - The Winnipeg Sun
"McDonnell displays the touch of a virtuoso and elegantly recaptures the sound of 300-year-old folk music… [She] deserves praise for delivering [this music] the way it was meant to be heard." - Barrie Examiner
Celtic harp music by Turlough O'Carolan, and traditional tunes of his time, including The Lark in the Clear Air. Siobhan McDonnell (1961-2005) is accompanied by flute, baroque violin and viola da gamba - the Arion Ensemble.
