With a gathering of fine musicians, Hilary O’Neill once again explores the richness of her Celtic past, and delivers in her own special way, a mosaic of traditional songs from Ireland and Scotland. Through haunting and beautiful melodies, we hear stories of love, love lost, journeys to the unknown, nostalgia, mischief, mythical beings, sadness, joy and the celebration of life.
An entrancing selection of traditional Irish and Scottish songs.

The music recorded on this disc represents some of the finest written for the voice in the Lieder repertoire. The fundamental Classicism of the Schubert and its warm anticipation of the emerging Romanticism makes a link with Brahms and eventually Schubert, bringing the Lied into the twentieth century. The unchanging issues of the human condition, life, love, despair, bliss, death and destiny are all explored and confirmed in these magnificent and contrasting songs.
