The Irish Tenors’ newest CD
Sacred is a superb collection of tunes. From the opening track,
Deus Meus, an ancient hymn written by Irish monks circa 1086, to the concluding Gregorian chant,
Salve Regina, with its roots going back to the 13th century, this recording is The Irish Tenors at their best.
The arrangement of Lord of the Dance is fascinating, beginning as the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts and morphing into an Irish jig, demonstrating the wonderful influence the Irish have had on American music.
Sacred is the equivalent of a holiday CD which can be enjoy year-round.
