O'Carolan's Harp

The reviewers say:

Barrie Examiner:
"…Heavenly is…an apt adjective to describe McDonnell’s rendition of the music of 17th-century [Irish] composer Turlogh O’Carolyn… McDonnell displays the touch of a virtuoso and elegantly recaptures the sound of 300-year-old folk music… [She] deserves praise for delivering [this music] the way it was meant to be heard."
- Andrew Flynn

The Winnipeg Sun:
"…Beautiful playing, pure sounds. A great collection for celtophiles."
- Mark Perry

RPM Magazine
"…[The] songs performed here…are played with evident affection… [The] harp produces a sound that is, quite simply, heavenly."
