Camhanach

by Mackenzie

Camhanach from Mackenzie turns out to be full of surprises. The sisters' musicality and the sheer clarity and precision of their diction is much to be commended - not least for the ease with which the Gaelic learners will be able to use the Gaelic lyrics and the very useful translations to follow the sung word. Most extraordinary effect of all is the final track, "Leabaidh Naoimh Aula"... at once magnificent and heart-rending, and as painstakingly constructed as a vocal piobaireachd.

Media Reviews

Always in the foreground are the harmonies - so incredibly close and intuitive - as only sisters can sing... Here even hearts of steel melt!... One of the absolute highlights of the last year!"

Review: Overall this is a beautifully crafted CD which has had lots of thought and imagination put into it. Yet the sisters have not forgotten where their tradition is anchored, and have kept the Gaelic feel intact. The delightful singing would probably have been enough but when allied to the sensitive and clever arrangements the CD becomes a bit special. Recommended.Chris Mackenzie, The Living Tradition
