Hearing staples of Irish folk music as performed by the kids of the North Texas School of Music actually feels like a refreshing breath of fresh air: these songs are youthful, energetic and dynamic by nature, and the fact that children are able to appreciate them and perform the music with such enthusiasm and personality is really a great testament to the power of folk music in itself.

From the opening song Gleanntáin Ghlas' Ghaoth Dobhair on Winter Air you could easily be listening to a track by any mainstream recording artist, such is the quality and production values herein. The album is in fact by a music school, namely North Texas School of Music. You simply don't expect this quality from a music school. It excels on the evocative Clannad-like tracks that feature layers of harp, strings and hushed vocals. It's that good. --Tradconnect
