Beautiful and relaxing Celtic music. Some are true lullabies. Others are more soothing and meditative than sleep-inducing. The performances are universally strong and the entire release play worthy for those moments when you want a little extra grace. The female vocalists are especially noteworthy. I wish I could sing like this.

*1. Warm, sweet female vocals, soft guitar/fiddle.
2. In English, fem vox, child’s chorus, strings, a sweet lullaby.
3. Burns poem w/male vox, strings. Just slightly dark.
*4. Sweet, crystal-fragile fem vox, piano/flute/strings. Just gorgeous.
5. Celtic harp, female-fairy voice. Dreamy and sleepy.
*6. Guitar and fem vox, a sweetly swaying lullaby.
*7. Gentle harp backs lovely fem vocalist. Slow & delicate.
8. A wispy lullaby w/soft guitar & female vocalist.
9. Guitar and tin whistle duet. Slow & melodic and a bit melancholy.
10. Soft strings (guitar, viola), fem vox. Slow & delicate Burns poem.
