Karan has a beautiful voice. Very relaxing and breathtaking CD from the former Solas vocalist.
I've had the privilege of attending possibly five Karan Casey performances in the past 10 years.This should tell you that I am,in fact,a devotee.This woman,along with another great diva from the British Isles,June Tabor,are my preferred female vocalists.Karan Casey and June Tabor educate,entertain,and elicit emotion.This is Karan's best:austere,warm,appropriately produced,endearing,and vital.Karan wears and lives these songs.Bravo,another masterpiece from this fine interpreter of Ireland's past.
Karan Casey is one Ireland's best female vocalists. "Ships In The Forest" is one of her mellowest Cds.
If you are a fan or Irish folk and contempary music I think you will enjoy this. I bought this CD after it was recommended to me by Amazon.com and I am quite pleased with it. I have listened to the entire album over a half dozen times and am still enjoying every song.Karen has a pleasant singing voice and the accompiament and rythyms are entertaining as well. Although that is just my opinion, your mileage may vary. :-)
I am a fan of traditional music without a lot of modern flair. The album is elegant, haunting, and sincere, not to meant powerful.
It was enough to whet my appetite. Before I bought this album, I had only heard bits and pieces from Karan Casey's myspace profile.
She is accompanied by very few instruments on this album, so her voice really shines. I am so pleased with this album that it's hard to find the right words.I am a new listener of hers having only heard her solo albums and never one by Solas, her old band.
I absolutely love her voice. Her words seep through your eardrums and will make you float.
If you are too, you will love this album.I also recommend these albums which I also own by Casey: Distant Shore, Seal Maiden: A Celtic Musical, Chasing the Sun, and The Winds Begin to Sing
