Magical, ethereal music for voice, harp and more.......2006-10-01

Intermixing plainsong from Gaelic masses with gentle Celtic folk tunes, singer/ harpist Aine Minogue and many guest artists weave a soft, pastel tapestry of spirituality, mystery and quiet moods. Her wispy, Enya-esque voice drifts above lush, lyrical instrumentals and leads the choral harmonies of the hymns and plainsong. It's nice to hear sacred songs included on an album of Celtic music, being that Christianity has long been an integral part of Irish society. Minogue and company present an interesting variety of songs, performed with reverence, relish and a predominantly gentle touch. This is light, shimmering music intended for contemplation and relaxation; don't expect rousing jigs and rowdy drinking songs here. But put "The Mysts of Time" on at the end of a hard day, and feel the stresses melt away. Very relaxing and transporting! Joining Minogue on this recording is a veritable "who's who" in the New Age / Celtic genre: William Coulter on guitar; vocalists Alasdair Halliday, Scott Trible, John Hazen and Klila; Barry Phillips on cello; tabla and keyboards; Shelley Phillips on oboe and English horn; Steve Schuch on fiddle; Patrick Hutchinson on pipes and whistles; Paul Machlis on Keyboards, and Gerry Putnam on Mandolin. Subsequent albums by Aine Minogue include "Between the Worlds" and "Celtic Meditation Music." Try also the work of Enya and Therese Shroeder-Sheker.

Beautiful.......2006-02-10

Simply put, this is the most beautiful vocal CD I've ever heard.
I bought it almost 10 years ago and still listen to it constantly.

Not from this world..........2004-01-11

Perfectly orchestrated music. Voice from another world. "Only" five stars because there is no 6-stars rating.

Beautiful.......2002-04-29

Beautiful music. You can close your eyes and believe you are in Ireland!!! Incredible!

Well..............2002-03-02

My first CD from Aine Minouge was 'Between the worlds', and it will forever be one of my favorites, but 'The mysts of time' simply did not live up to expectation. Simply put, its a matter of tastes. If you like your celtic music light and easy, this one's for you; if you prefer more somber, mood driven tunes, turn your attention to 'Between the worlds'.
