Sure enough, Loreena's voice is a special one. Haunting, clear, and multi-coloured. She can sing,(!) bringing a dying monk's final hours closer, or relay a saga about a magical swan.
Some say the true talent of a singer cannot be tested any better than how they manage to do a live performance. Loreena does not only give away a fine concert, the lyrics are somewhat different here and there, the speed is up in some places, and in particular The Old Ways intro, with a whirling violin, is dizzying. Brilliance at it's best.
The proceeds of this CD go to the Cook-Rees Memorial Fund for Water Search and Safety. McKennitt co-founded this fund after she lost 3 men who were dear to her. (more information can be found on www.quinlanroad.com)
