"Celtic Twilight" by various artists
http://amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000000X89/thebards?ref=
nosim
Amazon.com
The original in the internationally popular Hearts of Space
series, Celtic Twilight is a collection of 14 pieces: 8 from the
label's artist stable of recordings--including a quartet of
compositions from HOS stalwart Bill Douglas--and 6 from other
carefully selected artists. An instrumental recording, save for
the standout "Ancient Pines" from singer-instrumentalist
Loreena
McKennitt and the Bill Douglas closer featuring soprano Jane
Grimes, Celtic Twilight combines traditional Celtic whistles,
acoustic strings, and bagpipes with contemporary keyboards.
Gentle, lilting and romantic, these songs are the music of the
ocean and rolling green hills, of that magical pink-sky time of
evening when the lines between myth and reality blur in a most
pleasing fashion. --Paige La Grone
