Product Description
CD Description
Volume 7 of the million-selling Celtic Twilight series weaves a tapestry of deeply peaceful sacred music from antiquity to present. The Celts observed the intimate relationship between humans and the natural world and the sense of spirit present in nature. This special collection of hymns and choral classics celebrates the timeless spirit at the heart of the Celtic genre.

I have collected three of the Celtic Twilight series, my first being Celtic Twilight 3 Lullabies, which I always thought they'd have difficulty matching in terms of its tranquil beauty. But Celtic Twilight 7 Sacred Spirit has easily matched it; whereas Lullabies contains enchanting lullabies, Sacred Spirit contains pieces with a serene choral bent, altogether different but equally as relaxing. Both albums are just perfect when preparing to put one's head down for the night. Very highly recommended.

"THIS IS A WINNER"...Heavenly and Mystical....
15 Mar 2007
Format:Audio CD
ALL MUSIC GUIDE reviewer Thom Jurek, tells why you will love this CD. He says:
"These original songs and interpretations are rendered in forms of sonic poetry that appeal to that which is sacred inside the individual as opposed to underscoring a particular tradition....This is a winner. Forget tags like "new age" and "Celtic," and simply breathe it all in. It washes one's head -- and perhaps even heart -- clean for a time, and opens the world up for a little while".
I am the producer of both this compilation and the "SACRED TREASURES" series as well as "MUSIC OF GRACE: Amazing Grace" and "SACRED SONGS OF MARY". In each case, my intention was to bring together the very best performances of exceptionally beautiful, slow and peaceful sacred music. All of the pieces on this compilation are filled with lush harmonies, whether sung by mixed choirs or by soloists, and all are deeply nourishing to the soul.
Different types of music serve different needs, and in today's stressful and fast-paced world, one of the most important and often neglected needs is for time out from that world--to rest in a magical, quiet space of slow, peaceful, beauty. That peaceful beauty is available to you on all of my compilations, including this one, "CELTIC TWILIGHT 7: Sacred Spirit".

I have all of the Celtic Twilight series and found both #6 & #7 to be a departure from the quiet beauty that marked the first CD's in the series. If there is a #8, I will preview it, but will not promise a purchase, until after the preview.
