by Catherine L. Tully
Artist: Maidens III Album: "Charm & Fire" Year produced: 2006 Listening to the music on this CD it is very difficult to believe that these ladies are so young--they have totally mastered their instruments. The only time you hear it is in their lovely and innocent-sounding voices, which ring with the purity that only comes with youth. A mixture of Celtic and Folk music, the tracks range from reels to jigs to ballads and more.  The young ladies are sisters who have played together for much of their lives, which explains how the music is so incredibly tight. The slower songs are filled with yearning and the upbeat have an energy that is packed full--even energetic by the standards of Celtic music! Whatever you do, don't miss track 3, "As I Was Going To Ballynure" for its skillful arrangement.This CD is titled very appropriately--these young women are charming as can be and they sparkle with musical energy that could aptly be described as fire. Violin, Guitar, Viola and Bodhran are some of the instruments highlighted here and it makes for pretty music. Accomplished playing and sweet vocals are the simple keys to this album's magic--it is very well done. Buy the Album: "Charm & Fire" Catherine L.
