Music reviews of Night Before: Celtic Christmas
Music Review: I sent this to my friends in Ireland.
Rating: 5 Stars
This is one of my all-time favorite Christmas CDs. It's an annual tradition in my home to play this one on Christmas Eve since the entire album's theme is the night before Christmas and the Irish tradition of welcoming wayfarers in from the cold on that night. The CD was originally released as "The Night Before" a few years ago.I sent this CD to my Irish friends in Dublin, and they called me to say that they were playing it it over and over again, finding it the perfect traditional Irish music for Christmas.
This is no schmaltzy "Celtic" holiday music, this is the real thing.

Description of Night Before: Celtic Christmas
What makes this more distinctive than most similarly produced and played Celtic holiday records is the spirit and sensibility Dordán brings to bear. Here is a Christmas Eve concept record meant to re-create the Irish tradition of mixing poetry, song, and traditional music with family and friends the night before the big day. There is serenity and mirth-making aplenty throughout the 50 minutes. Especially memorable, however, is the magical reading of "Silent Night" ("Oiche Chiuin," in Gaelic) and a few other noteworthy pieces. --Martin KellerClassical CDs
