Customer Reviews:
Hymns in the Anglican Tradition Beautifully Performed.......2007-01-24
Very inspiring music.......2005-07-06
Great English Hymns.......2005-02-10
Anyway, this CD was great to listen to. Some hymns are scored for orchestral accompaniment, choir and organ, while the majority of tracks are just for choir and organ.
Recorded in the King's College Chapel (the front cover has a great shot of the ceiling's trademark "fan" stone carving), the hymns are pure English sound--boys' treble voices along with men's changed voices singing with a pure, clean, straight tone. It's very sweet-sounding.
The hymns chosen are also great; "Be Thou My Vision," an Irish classic, appears along with "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross," "All People That on Earth Do Dwell," and "Morning Has Broken" (later recorded by Cat Stevens).
The singing isn't especially elaborate--they're just simple hymns. They're orchestrated very well, however, and they sound great.
Religious people may prefer these recordings more in general--these are Christian hymns after all--but I think it's a great recording and is worth listening too, especially if you enjoy that English sound!

Not what I wanted-Not even close........2005-07-08
The Vow by Druidstone is a much better choice.......2002-01-02
The book came about because our daughter wanted a celebration reflective of her roots; we ended up with all Irish music for the ceremony, including a Celtic Mass. The same was true of the reception. There is so much great Irish music available that the problem for most couples will be deciding what to include and what to leave out. Except for The Irish Wedding Song and My Wild Irish Rose, it's my opinion that this particular CD is misleading as to its name and content.

Customer Reviews:
Great Romantic Music for Any Occasion.......2007-05-23
The title song is undoubtedly the most popular - "The Irish Wedding Song" by Andy Gooney. It mentions all of the ups and downs of weddings, and provides a great background song for the couple's first dance together. Again, it's not specifically Irish in nature, so it would be perfect no matter what type of wedding it was.
The Voyage by Tony Kenny is a song about the work and care that goes into the voyage of life, and how creating a "ship" that is sturdy and of high quality helps to ensure that the couple stays together for a lifetime. Two more romantic, soothing songs follow - "Forever and More" and "I'll Never Find Another You". These are great for slow dancing or for background music during a reception.
The three songs "Daddy's little Girl", "My Son" and "Mother" are all specifically targetted towards those parent-child dances that are traditional at weddings. The words may be a little hokey at times, but really, that's the beauty of a wedding. It *is* about sentimental, hokey feelings, about a giant, celebrated change between being alone and being with a new person. I do have to comment that it was a bit odd to have "Mother" sung by a male singer, when the sentiments are all from the Mother's point of view. I'd like to see that one redone with a woman singing.
The remaining songs - "Siege of Ennis", "The Only One", "It's Our Anniversary", "You Touched Upon My Life", "Gown of White", "The Vows Go Unbroken" and "Old Time Waltz Medley" are all far less specific, meaning you can mix and match them as you wish. The Anniversary song of course you can save and play on each Anniversary, or perhaps honor a couple at the event who has been together for a long time.
Would you play this CD at a time NOT involving a wedding? I could see playing the second half of the songs - which are gently romantic - pretty much any time. Many of the songs could prove inspirational to you if you're about to get married or are in a marriage and want to remember what your vows meant. Marriage isn't something that just happens. It's something that takes daily work, to care and nurture. These songs might help provide the inspiration to feel grateful for what you have and to put in the tender appreciation that helps a marriage last a lifetime.
Well recommended.
You don't have to be Irish to like this CD.......2005-05-23
While there may be other versions of the song available, Andy Cooney's version, found here, remains the gold standard by which all other versions are measured.
