Pros: loved all of the music
Cons: it wasn't long enough
Celtic Mystique is one of my most favorite CDs to listen to. I definately never get bored listening to it. Some songs capture the allure of the Celtic people and the beauty or the surroundings, some show a more upbeat and energized side. There was definately nothing bad to say about this CD except the fact that it wasn't long enough. I can't get enough of this CD. Kudos to Baer!

This is the first celtic music CD that I have ever owned. And what a wonderful way to start! The music is mystical and magical. And once you start listening, it almost feels -- familiar. My favorite track is Planxty George
Brabazon -- I don't know how to folk dance, but that track makes you want to get up and try! If you enjoy wild, soulful, earthy music --this CD will not disappoint you.

I just bought this CD and already love all the songs. My favourites are Planxty Lady Wrixon, Planxty George
Brabazon, and Faire Mehli. There are fastpaced songs, slower songs, haunting ones, romantic ones, warmth and cold and all telling stories. If you like instrumental music that brings you into another world, you should definitely look into this CD.
