Album Description

With it's rustic, mellow fireside sound, the Scottish acoustic ensemble Iona Abbey leads listeners on a refreshing discovery of a kind of music previously unexplored by many Celtic music groups, as it is often confined to the Great Highland Bagpipe. The ensemble takes advantage of non-amplified instruments, like the Scottish small pipe, with their quiet warm woodwind flavor, and string and soft percussive accompaniment. This makes the music more appealing to a wider audience by giving a lighter air with tunes often only heard by Scottish pipers in competition band settings.

Customer Reviews:

Mediocre all-around.......2005-03-28

The recording quality is mediocre, but enough to hear that Tyrone Heade is a mediocre bagpiper. Surprised anyone would release this and put their name on it.

OK but not great.......2005-02-07

The tunes are OK but nothing new or original. You can find similar stuff by going to a ceilidh following a highland games in your area, and probably with some better-known names.
