Summary: Awsome concert
Comment: This is a must have DVD for any fans of the CELTIC Woman. If you can't see them in concert see this DVD.

Summary: An Enjoyable, Relaxing, Addictive Video
Comment: I've heard the audio of the original Celtic Woman and the Christmas CD, but this is the first video. Wow!

My favorite vocalist was Hayley, though I also like Chloe and Meav. And what can I say about Mairead? She is a joy to watch, even on more solemn moments like when she accompanied Hayley on "Lascia Chio Pianga". But one highlight for me was Lisa's singing "The Voice", rivaling "Orinico Flow" as my favorite cut. I also enjoyed "The Prayer", "Scarborough Fair", the wonderful aca pella arrangement of "Over The Rainbow", "Lascia Chio Pianga", "Spanish Lady", "Somewhere", and "You Raise Me Up".

Summary: another great Celtic Woman dvd!
Comment: Its best to watch the behind the scenes section of this dvd FIRST. It gives a lot of great background to this presentation. Helps us appreciate the work that went into/goes into it. Its agrivating that these women are still forced to all the 'fake staging' while they are singing. I guess that is done to make sure each of the stars get equal billing, equal face time? Their concert is amazing. The singing is incredible! Everything is so beautiful! Go out to see them if you can - but if you cant, get this dvd (and the previous one too!) and have a Celtic Woman night with your family or friends.

Celtic Woman, the PBS sensation, returns for 2007 in A New Journey: Live at Slane Castle, Ireland. Most of the elements return as well: vocalists Chloe, Meav, Lisa, and Orla; fiery fiddler Mairead; music director David Downes; chorus and orchestra; and the New Age-y Celtic and traditional music. New for this show is New Zealand vocalist Hayley Westenra, a picturesque outdoor location, and an almost entirely new song list. Chloe sings "The Prayer" (made famous by Josh Groban) and "Panis Angelicus"; Lisa covers "Caledonia," "The Blessing," and "The Voice"; Orla sings "Newgrange" and accompanies herself on harp for "Carrickfergus"; Meav sings "Dulaman"; Mairead plays "Granuaile's Dance" and "Shenandoah: The Pacific Slope"; and Hayley sings "Scarborough Fair" by herself and duets with Mairead (Handel's "Lascia Ch'io Pianga") and Meav ("The Last Rose of Summer"). Then of course the group performs together ("The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun," "Over the Rainbow," "Beyond the Sea," "At the Ceili," "Sing Out!", "Spanish Lady," "Mo Ghile Mear"). Encore performances from the original show are Enya's "Orinoco Flow," "Danny Boy," "Somewhere," and "You Raise Me Up." Hayley proves to be an excellent fit among the beautiful voices, and Lisa seems to emerge as the talent most deserving of attention, but overall the show lacks some of the fresh sparkle of the original. The song list isn't quite as strong, and some of the "primp and pose" choreography is just silly. But Celtic Woman is never less than charming, and at its best can be quite stirring. --David Horiuchi
