Listening Once More to "Welcome Brigid"

Welcome Brigid: mystical and celtic chant and song to the divine feminine, by Katy Taylor, with Amy Fradon and Lynn Margileth.

I mentioned this CD three years ago, with a link to the CD Baby site where you can preview it. But I have just spent a quiet hour listening to it, not as background music as I bop through my day, but really listening to every word. (Though not understanding all--Taylor sings in Irish and Latin as well as in English.)

I just want to tell you again--it is beautiful, prayerful, joyful, wonderful. Both Mary and Brigid are honoured here, with a mixture of traditional and original lyrics, rhythmic chant and high voice. If you haven't encountered it, please follow this link and you will soon learn more.

Two Brigit CDs

Such a delight to listen to truly beautiful music that is inspired in part by Brigit. Check out the cut previews of these two CDs.

Katy Taylor created Welcome Brigid with Amy Fradon and Lynn Margileth. You can hear one or two more previews on CDbaby,including a poem to Brigid. Everything fits together beautifully, vocals and instruments, words and intent.

 

Barbara Gallagher's St. Brigid of Kildare Suite is pure piano and it is gorgeous. You can listen to pretty much the whole thing on her website. You can buy it at CDbaby.
