Initially interesting on three fronts - a female, a Small Pipes player and a singer; all at the same time.
However that interest is quickly taken over by the quality of performance and clarity of voice - so you actually get to hear the story in the story songs; and the accompaniment from the pipes and the other players is all spot-on.
An album that will please and surprise many.
Have a listen.
