Various Artists - Celtic Woman 3

 A beautiful mix of Celtic music
I should note to anyone who might come across CELTIC WOMAN 3, this is compilation of female Celtic artists like Mary Black and Maire Brennan, This is not the popular vocal group Celtic Woman. Unlike with the pop group, the artists featured on the cd is that their music is folk/pop as opposed to classical/pop.

As a a fan of celtic music, I was looking for some new celtic music and I found it with CELTIC WOMAN 3. I was quite pleased as well as surprised that most of the cd is not as predictable as some celtic compilations are, with the exception of Clannad's tiresome "Theme from Harry's Game" which I have heard one too many times in the past. The rest of the album is a wonderful compilation of an array of female celtic artists, old and new. The songs are beautiful to say the very least. I found the cd to be very relaxing to listen to. I really liked the songs that had a new age sound like "The Star of the County Down" by Sheoda and "The Green Fields of Canada" by Cherish the Ladies. I liked the fact that the compilation didn't consist of songs that I had heard on every other celtic compilation (with the exception of the Clannad track). I enjoyed listening to every song on the album despite being a bit tired of "Theme from Harry's Game". I think fans of celtic woman won't be disappointed in the new volume of CELTIC WOMAN.
