  Enjoyable for the entire family January 6, 2009 The title says it all! Celtic Woman at its finest! Beautiful scenery, surroundings, orchestra and the women! What an enjoyable couple of hours!
  Outstanding Show January 6, 2009 This show is far better on DVD than on CD because there is dancing and movements that must be seen to really enjoy the show. The music is outstanding with 5 beautiful, clear voices along with the "Fiddle Fox". The five women in Celtic Woman sing in English, Latin and Gaelic. What a performance!
  Celtic Woman ... Again ... December 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Best Of The Best!! I could probably be considered a tad biased here. I (personally) can't get enough of CELTIC WOMAN. I listen to their CDs every day and watch at least parts of their DVDs every evening. (Who needs TV)! (I've seen CW in concert 12 times already, with 6 more concerts scheduled, during the upcoming Spring 2009 "Isle Of Hope" Tour). You could say I'm a bit of a fan, I guess. Well, let's be honest ... I LOVE THEM TO PIECES!! Of all the concerts I've attended over the years, CW STILL remains the BEST OF THE BEST!!
This new CW release, both the CD and the DVD, are a kind of "Greatest Hits" type of release. There are a couple of new numbers, we have not heard from CW before, included plus, lots of stunningly beautiful shots of the Emerald Isle herself, between the songs on the DVD.
To me, of course, both the CD and the DVD are worth every penny. If you are the hardcore CW fan that I am, you will more than likely agree. If you are merely a casual CW fan and not quite as 'committed' to them as I am, you may find too many of the same songs from prior releases, not enough to justify buying either the CD or the DVD. But, before you completely dismiss these new releases as merely "Greatest Hits", let it be known that, on the CD, you have two numbers ... "The Call" (incredible and could possibly, possibly, become the new CW 'Anthem' as "The Sky And The Dawn And The Sun" was during the "A New Journey" Tours and related CD/DVD releases) and ... "Pie Jesu" which features the absolutely stunning, stunning voices of LYNN HILARY and CHLOE AGNEW. Their voices, in this number, both solo and together (in harmony) ... are positively angelic!!
And on the DVD, besides the incredible views of the beautiful Irish Landscape, the Documentary portion of this release is, in and of itself, well worth the price. This is something many, many people, even some diehard fans of CW, probably have never seen. This alone will leave you yearning for more.
So, all that said and considering that I am one of the most dead serious, hardcore, diehard, most rabid CELTIC WOMAN fans on the face of the earth, and would recommend ANYTHING they do, I do still recommend both the newest CD and DVD releases, even to more 'casual' fans of CW. There is some new material here, on both the CD and the DVD, which you have not seen or heard. (CW Ltd is not releasing any new material, other than what is contained on this CD and DVD here, prior to the launch of the all-new "Isle Of Hope" Tour in February 2009).
No matter how you slice it, CW just keeps getting better.

The music is wonderful....I didn't realize it was a dvd. I was disappointed. I wanted to listen to it in my car, not watch it...............would rather have had it as a cd.
