Morrison01

Celtic harpers of old played the three musics: the music of mirth, the music of sorrow, and the music of sleep. Celtic music is a rich tapestry of these musics, and selections of each are presented here.

Jo Morrison finds the freshness and grace that first gave Celtic music its power.
— Pamela Murray Winters, music critic
