And just as pity is the fact that one can only buy sheet music of songs starting from The visit[/I}... I'd love to play my favourites from [I]Paralell Dreams on piano.

BTW, ya should have heard my mother the other day...I was sitting by the piano, playing The bonny swans, and in she came and sang (or shouted) out her opera-version of the same song... Lol


I love 'Banks of Claudy', 'Standing Stones', and 'Annachie' dearly. Loreena's voice sounds so different on the 'Standing Stones' recording it would be fascinating to hear live. From Elemental and Parallel Dreams I'd also love to hear 'Stolen Child' and 'Samain Night'. 'The Two Trees', 'Kercharitomene', 'La Serenissima', and 'Dark Night of The Soul' would all be lovely as well.

I may seem picky, but honestly, I'm happy with anything she sings/plays.

P.S. Malin, I wish I could get that response out of my parents when I play 'The Bonny Swans'!

Ones I didn't hear in April that I would enjoy this go round would be "Kecharitomene", "Snow",
"Good King Wensalas" & especially the spooky
sounding "Courtyard Lullaby". There's too many
that they didn't play before that I'd love to hear. Actually, if they played none of the one's they played in the spring they still would have plenty of songs to fill a whole new show, and some left over as well.

I would love to hear songs from Drive the Cold Winter Away .. It would be a wonderfull experience to listen the In Praise Of Christmas or the Let All that Are to Mirth Inclined (in christmas period of course)...
I would love to listen to Snow again which was so beautiful to the live version I have from a radio past show...
Blacksmith, Kellswater and Lullaby although it s hard to find an as haunting voice as Douglas Campbell for a live performance..
and instrumentals such as Lark in the Clear Air ..
