This enjoyable all-instrumental recording features Shelley Phillips on celtic harp, oboe, English horn, Irish flute, pennywhistle, bamboo flute, and kailmba. Other musicians add cello, double harp, recorder, guitar, dulcimer, fiddle, and piano to this diverse ensemble. Most of the selections are traditional celtic, but there are also tunes from Sweden, Renaissance and medieval tunes, and a composition by Kim Robertson. The musical arrangements make this CD really shine.
