Free Music Notes for Celtic TreasureFree Music Review: Celtic Treasure Hit: 5 Stars
After hearing Hayley on Celtic Treasure and also her earlier recordings I was really surprised hearing her voice. I have been singing since I was about three years old and am now in my late seventy's and haven't heard a voice like hers for a good number of years. I have sung in choirs, choruses and even in Operettas and am still singing in a choir. When I heard her sing on Celtic Women I knew I had to hear more of her music. I was struck by the softness, clarity, and mellow tones which rang in my ears. I have also listened to her recording of Pure, Odyssey and Live From New Zealand and especially enjoy the Spiritual portion on each of them. Hayleys music has come at a good time. We need to hear more music like hers and I hope and pray she will continue to give us her music for a long time to come. I listen to her music daily which is soothing and relaxing. Hayley certainly has had a very good family upbringing and I pray she will continue to be the person she already has become.
Free Music Review: This is beautiful music Hit: 5 Stars
This is an excellent CD from Hayley Westerna. Her voice is so soothing and clear. My favorite is the track "Whispering Hope" This is such an uplifting track. I love Hayley's vocals here. "Let Me Lie" and "Abide With Me" are two tracks with a peaceful spiritual sound. I love the flute and piano playing on these songs. "Danny Boy" is another highlight here. This is a classic Irish song about the passing of a dear friend. It is a sad but very beautiful track. "Sonny" is another excellent track about a hardworking lonely man who is dedicated to his farm and home. "The Water is Wide" is a very soothing track. The piano playing sounds so good on this song. Hayley picks up the pace with the track "Summer Fly" The violin playing gives this track a nice lively tempo. "Shenandoah" is a track about the beauty of the lovely river. This song is very moving. "Scarborough Fair" and "Summer Rain" are very romantic sounding tracks. This is a very enjoyable CD filled with lovely music.
Free Music Review: Hayley Westenra album simply fanastic! Hit: 5 Stars
This is my first Hayley Westenra album and it is wonderful CD. I have to admit I didnot know who Hayley Westenra was until I say her on the Celtic Woman Slane Castle DVD. She sang beautifully with Celtic Woman and I decided I MUST have one of her CD's. I choose this and I am certainly glad I did. Hayley wrote or co wrote most of the songs on the CD. Two of the songs "Scarborough" Fair" and "Last Rose of Summer" is when she was with Celtic Woman. With the song "Last Rose of Summer" she did it as a duet with Meav for Celtic Woman. These two song are probably my favorites for obvious reasons! I love Celtic Woman!! But I love the rest as well "Danny Boy" (which always bring tears to me eyes) "Let me Lie" "One Fine Day" and all the others are wonderful songs. She was only 19 when this CD was made and now she is 23 so I want to hear how her voice has matured as she has. This is a CD that is a must buy so go now and buy it!!
Free Music Review: Hayley is amazing Hit: 5 Stars
Hayley strikes again with her new album Celtic Treasure. This album starts off wonderfully with the beautiful, haunting song 'Let Me Lie.' Hayley shows that she is very versatile by including the country-flavoured 'Summer Fly' and the soft, emotional 'Sonny.' There are so many beautiful tracks on this album. Hayley shows that she is an excellent songwriter with the undeniably gorgeous 'Summer Rain.' If you have a chance to see Hayley on tour with Celtic Woman in May, grab the chance! She is amazing!! I highly recommend this album as well as all her other albums. Pure Odyssey Treasure
Free Music Review: Hayley's Heavenly Treasure Hit: 5 Stars
Complementing her recent tour with Celtic Woman as well as her own heritage, Celtic Treasure once again blesses us with a beautifully sung collection of well crafted and orchestrated music that showcases the vocal talents of this gifted artist from New Zealand.
Included are Scarborough Fair, Danny Boy, and other Celtic standards that sound like fresh material written just for her. Especially memorable is Abide With Me and the hauntingly beautiful Sonny.
Two self-penned songs, Let Me Lie and Summer Rain, provide a hint of what is to come regarding Hayley's songwriting abilities. They are both good songs and we hope with her busy schedule she finds time to write more.
The future looks very bright for Hayley and her next CD is eagerly anticipated.
