Celtic Twilight 1
Celtic Twilight is inspired by the swirling mists and the verdant hills of the
Celtic landscape and the matchless folk music of Ireland, Scotland and beyond.
With its poignant slow airs and brilliant dances, the compilation transports you
to a dreamlike world. Celtic Twilight was the title given by William Butler
Yeats to an 1893 book of stories and reminiscences of his Irish homeland. Like
the musicians presented here, the young poet longed to reconnect with what was
even for him a vanishing world. Celtic music sings of this world, embracing the
extremes of a joyous society in its rollicking dances and sombre introspection
in its mournful airs and ballads. Suffused by centuries of suffering, redeemed
by infinite beauty - it has captured the hearts and lifted the spirits of
hundreds of generations of listeners.

Celtic Twilight 2
It's another journey to the timeless place where whistles and fiddles, harps and
pipes, guitar and piano play in a fantastic landscape of synthesizers and
electronic woodwinds. To our great delight, our first compilation in this series
became an international hit: over a year on Billboard's Top New Age Albums chart
and still counting, the #1 Indie New Age Album of the Year! Inspired by the warm
appreciation pouring our way, we set out to create an even better sequel. Once
again we had the expert help of co-producer Al Evers, who patiently sought out
source material from artists in four countries, then pitched in to help craft
the sequence.

the stunning Irish soprano MEAV, former principal soloist with Anuna,
