Very Moving and a Celtic Treat! October 14, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a must CD for anyone who loves Celtic music. Many of the songs are familiar from other artists such as Enya, Loreena McKinnet and Clannad but the Arkenstone touch makes them special.
Beware - remakes September 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Being a fan of DA, I ordered this prior to it being released. I was disappointed to find that it's just a set of uninspiring remakes.
Wonderful Team-up! August 20, 2008 I felt compelled to write a review of my own after reading the one posted by another customer, calling CELTIC SANCTUARY "uninspiring" and somehow claiming that all the songs sound the same. I could not disagree more!
To learn that Arkenstone had released a compilation mainly comprised of cover songs was disappointing at first, but as I listened to the song samples I was immediately sold. I never even heard of Kathy Fisher until now, but she sure is a natural for celtic music.
The Enya tracks are certainly among the highlights of the disc. I honestly prefer Fisher's voice to Enya. However, Fisher does expose her high range limitations in THE MUMMER'S DANCE, but I suppose the CD would have been incomplete without the inclusion of the Loreena McKennit hit.
It would be really nice to see Fisher & Arkenstone back together again for more!
Simply Captivating November 28, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
When I learned that Kathy Fisher (of the pop duo "Fisher" and songstress of many a commercial you've probably heard) planned to do a Celtic CD, I was intrigued, not knowing quite what to expect. I could not be happier with this CD and lack the adjectives to describe it. Captivating, breathtaking. Kathy's voice is perfectly suited to this genre and I can only hope that works such as this will expose more listeners to the range of her extensive talents.
If you like her voice on this CD, you can search for Fisher's other works sold on amazon and all over the web (True North, Uppers & Downers, The Lovely Years, One). I've been a fan of Kathy and her hubby, Ron, for years and am happy to share my kudos on this latest venture.
Not my favorite November 23, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I already own and love Atlantis & Echoes of Egypt, so I was really looking forward to the arrival of my Celtic Santuary CD. It was a big disappointment, the vocals were uninspiring and the tracks all sounded too similar to one another.
