With Celtic Lamentations, she has created the recording she wanted to hear that day. The eclectic array of tracks includes Celtic keening, the Banshee, Irelands classic Year and a Day, several original compositions, and Deus Meusan unusual fusion of Latin with Gaelic. ine Minogue is an artist who has long explored Irelands themes and mysteries, and who captures its very essence in her vocal and instrumental melodies. Now listeners join her to experience musics ability to help us acknowledge and let go of that which weve lostand to remember the joys that lie aheadwith Celtic Lamentations. CD, 58 minutes
