1 out of 5 stars Alone for a long time ?.......2004-05-10

The only thing I can guess is that the other reviewer must have gone for many days on her own to find the singer on this disc appealing - I thought it was a girl at first, or not a very good impression of one. The instrumentalists seem to have an idea what they are doing, and it stops there. If only we could erase the voice track...I could take a girl singing, or maybe a cute guy (with a guy voice).

5 out of 5 stars gorgeous voice and a lively amazing group........2002-01-10

what a surprise. After collecting ALL of David Daniels, Andreas Scholl, Dominique Visse, Brian Asawa, etc. countertenor galore this album was a magnificent surprise. Matthew White's voice is pure, beautiful and expressive and the rythm of the celtic and irish airs is so contagious I play it at all times in my car out LOUD and it blows everyone away. The group and its violinist are obviously tremendously talented, but what impressed me is the immediacy of the sounds and rythms and how they would compete favorably with all the modern music and beat that's everywhere. My kids could not believe there was no "electric guitar".The instrumental compositions are poignant and especially the last one composed by the talented violinist.This album deserves to be played everywhere regardless of class of music; being folk music it tells wonderful stories, and played by baroque instruments just makes the whole CD an experience. Both to Skye Consort and Matthew White, a heartfelt Bravo!
