FIRST HEARING:
Partly sung in English, partly in Gaelic, it is the latter that opens with a rather quirky arrangement that accompanies the straighter Gaelic vocal.
Certainly deserves your attention as another interesting example of the ways that this new generation of Celtic performers are progressing the old traditions.
It's all most pleasant and easy-on-the-ear.
Have a listen.
