The international Irish music phenomenon, Celtic Woman, is renowned for singing inspirational melodies and heartwarming songs that stir fans of all ages and cultures. The 5 member Irish female ensemble (vocalists Chloe, Lisa, Alex, Lynn and Celtic Violinist Mairead) under the musical direction of David Downes, categorically defined a distinct genre by putting a modern twist on the Celtic sound. In just four short years, the group has played nine US tours, released 4 CDs, 4 DVDs and performed for close to 1 million concert-goers. The group's albums have held the #1 position on the World Music Chart while their four PBS TV specials have dominated the broadcast circuit. As a testament to the group's ability to cross musical and cultural boundaries, 2009 saw Celtic Woman perform on ABC's Dancing With The Stars singing for 23 million viewers and at the White House for The National Christmas Tree Lighting before President Obama and his family. A true celebration of Ireland, Celtic Woman's unforgettable signature style can be enjoyed by all on their brand-new PBS TV special, concert tour, CD and DVD- Songs from the Heart.

The Charm Continues:
I have been a fan of the Celtic woman since the release of their first CD and DVD. The selection of music and the quality of the voices makes listening such a joy. This CD lived up to my expectations. Keep it coming
Celtic Women are AMAZING!!!!:
I bought the CD and DVD. They are complately amazing. I watched the DVD with my mom and sister and they fell in love as well. I can't wait to see them in concert this year. If you get a chance and if you like celtic music or even if you don't you should really take a losten you will be delighfully surprised.
departure from other albums:
We love Celtic woman's other albums and bought this just because it was another one from them. We were disappointed with this album. It sounds more like pop music than the other albums. They departed from the pure vocal sound of their other albums, both in song choice and vocal style. There are two or three good songs on it.
WHERE IS THE ACCENT?:
I HAD WAITED ON THIS CD AND WAS EXCITED ABOUT GETTING IT.LISTENED TO IT TWICE AND I'M DONE WITH IT.WHERE IS THEIR UNIQUE SOUND. THEY HAVE LOST ANY BITS OF THE CELTIC VOICE,THE BACKGROUND IS THERE BUT NOT THE LOVELY
ACCENT I LONG TO HEAR.I STILL LIKE TO WATCH THEM PERFORM.
