A carefully researched and superbly performed album inspired by the Irish migration of the 1840s.
Between 1846 and 1847, due to the famine, over a million people died and a further million were compelled to emigrate to America.
There has probably never been an album so beautifully and movingly recorded, which embodies the hopes and dreams of a nation, as The Celtic Voyage.
