Celtic Woman: A New Journey Trailers

The original buxom quartet of female singers, Lisa, Maev, Orla, and Chloe, have duly been joined by Hayley and are, as usual, backed by a full symphony orchestra and choir, plus enough traditional instruments (the house fiddler, Mairead, is a powerhouse) to keep things legit. The material ranges from folkloric, to a standard from another Celtic nation, to classical lite, to movie hits, to homegrown New Age.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

I first listened to Celtic Woman over a year ago (I know, I've been missing out for years!), and I can honestly say they are my all-time favorite music group. They have the voices of angels, their music (which is mostly a blend of traditional Irish music, classical music, and contemporary music) is absolutely lovely, and they are just so beautiful and graceful and truly incredible to watch. And on top of that, they are all so real and kind-hearted, and just as mind-blowingly beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. What's not to love?! This performance takes place at Slane Castle in Ireland and it offers a little something for everyone - from a stunning performance of "Scarborough Fair" by guest star Hayley Westenra, to Mairead Nesbitt's fun and energetic "Granuaile's Dance", to their incredibly catchy version of the traditional Irish folk song "Spanish Lady" (which was the first Celtic Woman song I had ever heard, and the song that made me fall in love with the indescribably amazing group).Fans of great music, you do NOT want to miss this!

I received this DVD for Christmas and can I just say how excited I was :) I have been obsessed with Celtic Woman ever since first seeing them perform on PBS. They are some of the most talented woman ever created!I especially love to watch Mariead "fly" around the stage and really get into her pieces. If i had to pick favorites out of the girls, I would have to pick Lisa, Orlagh and Mariead because they just seem to have great personalities (not that the others don't)and I can relater my voice to theirs while I sing along. I would definitely recommend this DVD to anyone, especially CW fans; you can't help but sing along and fall in love with them all over again!

A New Journey is definitely a must-have for all Celtic Woman fans out there, and it will surely bring new fans on board like me. The concert opens strong with "The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun" with all the CW ladies, and continues with familiar songs like "Orinoco Flow".For sure, my favorite song on the whole show has to be "Dulaman" performed by Meav Ni Mhaolchatha, and that beat-driven song in Gaelic.So yeah, you should all for sure catch it wherever you can, or even get it on DVD... for sure you won't regret it. If you are already here, it's because you are a fan of CW.The DVD in itself is pretty great, the 5.1 DTS and Surround mix makes it sound 10 times better than the Stereo track, and when you finish watching the concert, you can check the Behind the Scenes small doc that they have in it also...

For a strictly Irish based musical concert, this is very entertaining. There are a few instrumentals along with some classic Irish tunes. All of the ladies who represent the Celtic Woman group are lovely throughout the evening. The backdrop is the famous Slane Castle where some of the most famous concerts have been held. There is just something in seeing the behind the scenes that just shows how much work it is to pull off a live recording concert such as this. From the work of the costumers, to the work of the lighting crew, to the work of the choir, band, and the rest of the people who worked so hard to bring everything together, this is just a nice family entertainment concert that can be watched over and over again. Especially those songs that you just can't listen to only once.
