Betty

Thanks so much! I was waiting anxiously for this announcement. Can't wait for the package now. Hopefully Universal doesn't get it out late as always.

From Istanbul to Athens , right a mediterranean odyssey, I enjoy that.

Betty

Ciao Betty, allora bentornata, giusto in tempo per l'annuncio dei nuovi cd. Ho messo la faccetta arrabbiata perché spero che in Italia il cofanetto non esca in ritardo come sempre...
Sono troppo contenta di questa nuova uscita!

Hi Betty, welcome, right in time for this announcement. I put the 'mad smiley' as I fear the CD will be out late as always... So glad of this new release!

I'm so looking forward to this! Nice to add to my collections.

Wow, good news. I've already seen the cover at facebook. It looks extremely great. Can't wait to hold it in my hands!
When can we expect a tracklist?

Cheers, Anni

Hi Ramona!
Can i ask you where you have pre ordered it?
Bye!
Gianni.

Will this be released on iTunes? I'm looking forward to the first CD, but (personally) will skip the second CD if possible on account of presumed redundancy.

Hi Angie. There will be an iTunes release and I am almost certain you will be able to order a la carte. The release date in The United States will be October 20th.

Hi Gianni

Someone had mentioned in another area of the board that there was a new recording available for pre-order at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. I ordered from Barnes & Noble. I don't know if it is the same version that will be offered here, last year for AMWND there was one version you could only order through QR. If there is more than one version I will of course have to have them all

Ma sicuramente uscirà in ritardo da noi...come sempre ...comunque I'm very happy for this news..
Betty

Mark is possible that this cd will be presented
in fnac in Milan?
I hope...
Betty

Ma da dove esci fuori Gianni? E' un secolo che sei sparito!
where was Gianni?

Thanks Ramona for answering me

Ciao!Mi sono preso un anno sabbatico
I took a sabbatical year

I am very happy for the issue of the " A mediterranean Odissey", is a magical gift.
I wanted to know if it will be possible the pre-order and purchase on the site "Quinlan Road", because i am italian and I would want to take it from here!
Thanks still for an other wonderful dream...

Alla faccia! ma non sei andato in tour quest'anno?
was you in tour this summer?
Betty

Hi Mark!
I would like to know if "a mediterranean odissey" will be also available on web-sites like amazon uk,play.com or cdwow.Thanks
Gianni.

If anything it's like the Al Hambra set I'll end up getting 3 sets again Me, the folks, and a friend. Can't wait to get the release date.

cant wait for the new cds

Mark, when there will be the oppurtunity to preorder the new box-set? I read that there will be, probably, special offerts with gadget.

follow the link for a video of the album plus the track listing.

Dear all,
I have just searched Loreena's music in I-tunes and... wow! Now I'm just downloading the songs!!!
It's really a gift to be able to listen to the song Full circle live (I've never heard it live and it's one of my favourites!) and another live version of Gates of Istanbul (amazing, authentic and beautiful). I think the selection of songs, the studio and the live ones, is really great.
Thank you so much for these moments of happiness.
Love,

MANEL

I'm very looking forward to this album!
However, I was a bit confused when i saw that Mummer's Dance was on the tracklist. I always thought that rather belonged to the Irish Celtic part of the music (since it appears already on A Mummer's Dance through Ireland).

Take care,
Anni

At first glance th second cd seems redundant but only if seen through the perspective of the single songs, which I'm sure most of us already own. But if we consider it as part of the full package, I think it would make a nice listen together with the live cd. I'm tempted to pre-order today, especially since the official store is amazing in their service, kindness and low prices also for internationl buyers. If you have not tried to purchase from them, I can highly highly recommend it!

But if I buy the cd now, maybe I'll miss some nifty holiday packages in December? What to do?

I've just received A mediterranean Odissey!Fantastic!Thanks Loreena for this wonderful gift!Your voice is as always so powerful,moving,clear...the live cd is recommendable!Its versions of Tango to evora,The dark night of the soul,full circle,santiago are if possible more touching and stronger than ever.And the booklet is so interesting and refined!Thanks for giving me the chance to be part of your latest tour,even though i didn't have the occasion to attend the italian gig!
God bless you,

Gianni.

I ordered my Mediterranean Odyssey copy on Oct 19th from Amazon.com along with one other item (so as to get 'free shipping') and it arrived TODAY! They only mailed it the 22nd--I had no idea it was in my mailbox until I checked the Amazon site 1/2 hour ago under 'My Orders' box--surprise!

Istanbul to Athens it playing just now--it is so beautiful! It's wonderful to hear these slightly different 'versions' of the songs--and happily one of my VERY favs ever is on here--Full Circle! I can hardly wait to get to that one!

This set is a real godsend for those of us who had no way to get to one of the Mediterranean concerts. The other CD, The Olive and the Cedar, is a totally 'different' lineup of studio songs specially chosen, and the little booklet is truly gorgeous! Wish some bigger photos or posters might become available of a few of them...

Loreena, thank you so much for these 'goodies'! Even though I have all the songs on your other discs, it's wonderful to hear so many of them done again 'live', and some for the first time! You ALWAYS sound great, and your voice just seems to get more beautiful with each passing year--is such a thing even possible?

Oh BTW--is this the exact same set being offered through Quinlan Road/Maple Music? I thought it was, but am wondering for sure!

Dear all,

I ordered the limited edition and finally arrives! The design is excellent and beautiful

The olive and the cedar is just great! New edits for each song (except tango to evora, the mystic's dream, sacred shabbat and the mummers' dance)

And from Istanbul to Athens...OMG! Just beautiful concert, my favorite is Caravanserai and Beneath A Phrygian Sky...A few months ago I was wondered how would sound Beneath a phrygian sky in live..and, is just amazing!

I love the picture where Loreena is buying in a market in Lebanon. The booklet is beautiful..
QR, could you make a DVD like A Moveable Musical Feast but about the Mediterranean Tour? Loreena thanks for this gift!

In Italy it has never been released and no one knows anything of it.
...waiting for it still.

ma emanuela non l'hai ancora?ma prendilo dal sito direttamente...
