Album review from Rob Barnett
MusicWeb International
"The arrangements are tasteful, soft focus overall but not lacking in a gutsy bass emphasis for the orchestral signature. You can hear the punch in the orchestral sound in the title track and in the Herrmann-like Atlantic threat of Lenney’s Reel (tr. 5). The arrangements are no strangers to the slurring curvature, the lilt and swoon of the violin line which veers into the dewy melancholy of the instrumental writing in Ken Burns’ Civil War epic, the Ashokan Lament and Chieftains’ heart-stopping Women of Ireland. You can hear this in Tabhair Domh Do Laimh and in many of the other tracks.
. . . If we think of a pastoral lark it’s an Irish one with a blessing in its wing-beat."
