On this beautiful CD, ancient Basque, Spanish and Celtic carols mix with all-time favorites. Rhythmic, dance-like Spanish carols will set your toes tapping while haunting Gaelic carols bring you images of a magical, star-lit Christmas night. This is exotic, delightful Yuletide music at its best. Featuring classical, Celtic, and Spanish harps, recorders, flutes, nyckelharpas, organistrum, bass psaltery, percussion, bass and singing. The album comes complete with a beautifully crafted insert with information about the instruments and lyrics. The harpists in this ensemble are Lori Pappajohn and Jill Whitman.
