Average Rating: Rating: - A must for every collection A Celtic Tale is a piece of artwork. Something that is unforgetable. Haunting melodies and vocals that tell of a legend that is heartwrenching as well as beautiful. Just close your eyes while you listen and the story comes to life. You can see Deirdre before you as well as the two yew trees there on the hill. Don't know what I'm talking about? You'll understand when you open it up and pop it in to your CD player, and like the rest of us, you'll be hooked. Rating: - The Most INCREDIBLE Piece of Music I have heard "A Celtic Tale, the Legend of Deidre" is in itself, the most incredible, hauntingly beautiful, soul singing CD I have ever heard. I bought copies for everyone I know so they may share in this most lovely, spiritual, again haunting music. I cannot imagine life without it. Thank you Mychael and Jeff!!! Blessings, Kelli K. McNees Rating: - Very beautiful and melancholy I have listened to this CD so many times since I bought it. It is absolutely the most beautiful piece of work I have heard in a long time. Each piece of music has it's own mood, and each mood is appropriate for that part of the story. The use of sound effects in some of the songs is very effective, and I think this is one of the few CD's I own where the bagpipes didn't end up dominating all of the other instruments in the orchestra. I can imagine the story of Deirdre and Naoise as the CD plays along, and I find this to be a good musical retelling of one of my most favorite stories. My only concern here is that the story included with the CD is not an accurate translation of the story of Naoise and Deirdre. Rather, it seems to be like so many of the edited versions of the tale I've read where the author takes out what he doesn't like and makes the story to suit his own personal taste. This is the version that the music of the CD is based on, and since it doesn't mar my experience as long as I don't read it, I think it would have been better to go with the original tale instead of a "Hollywood" version. (Deirdre kills herself in the original tale, she doesn't simply die from grief).
