Description
FROM THE CREATORS AND PRODUCERS OF THE IRISH PHENOMENON CELTIC WOMAN COMES THE NEXT GENERATION IN IRISH BALLAD MUSIC, THE HIGH KINGS. Finbarr Clancy, Martin Furey, Brian Dunphy and Darren Holden - renowned vocalists and musicians - have come together to form the hottest Irish folk and ballad group to emerge since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem electrified the worldwide folk revival of the 1960s. The musical producer is the highly acclaimed David Downes, who is the musical genius behind Celtic Woman and formerly the musical director of Riverdance. He brings intricate harmonies and driving rhythms to The High Kings songbook, giving them a freshness and sparkle that is infectious. A rousing TV special was filmed in Dublin and is available on DVD (The High Kings: Live in Dublin).

Genuine Magic October 9, 2008
This DVD shows with visual backdrops the genuine folk music on stage. A collection of remarkably talented musicians who feel the music. The audience/viewer moves into their world. The last cut, "The Parting Glass," becomes, for me, a universal metaphor. Transcendent.
Some of the Best October 3, 2008
I love this DVD, I am glad it was recommended or I probably never would have seen it.
 a mediocre show September 26, 2008
the video came in excellent shape, well wrapped, clear and clear picture.
the contents were disappointing; the high kings held no candle to the
wonderful and joyful 'celtic thunder'.
since i enjoy 'celtic thunder' so much, i would be lax to buy another 'celtic' dvd.

Nothing to add really to all the glowing reviews here. I first heard them on a St Patricks Day special on TV and immediately bought the CD. The harmonies have the rich layers of the old Crosby Stills and Nash days but done in the Irish style that is foot-stomping, mournful, reflective, spiritual and ultimately triumphant. Just an incredible CD, you won't be disappointed.
