Celtic Woman--Voices Like Angels
69From the very beginning, the group, Celtic Woman, has been a success, holding the coveted Number 1 position on the Billboard World Music Charts for an astonishing 95 weeks.
And it's not surprising. Combine haunting violin music with angelic voices and you have music that transcends boundaries and connects to a worldwide audience. Celtic Woman concerts are met with enthusiasm and awe and Celtic Woman CDs have gone Platinum and Gold.
The group was the brainchild of David Downes (Musical Composer-Director) and Dave Kavanagh (Executive Producer).
Celtic Woman PBS
Celtic Woman's PBS special touched a huge audience; appearances on the Today Show and the Megan Mullay show showcased Celtic Woman's unique talent to network audiences.
Celtic Woman Concerts
The performers held a live T.V. special, "A New Journey," at Slane Castle, an apt setting for Irish music and Celtic culture. This was one of Celtic Woman's concerts that combined beautiful effects with heavenly voices.
Celtic Woman has performed at the White House and completed 4 successful U.S. tours at:
- Carnegie Hall
- Radio City Music Hall
- Boston's Opera House
- L.A.s Greek Theatre
The 8-member group has also completed tours in Japan, Canada, South Africa, and Germany.
Wherever they go, these talented women gain fans.

Very awesome group of talented women. There is a member you forgot: Lisa. Now there are two women named Lisa.
Hi, Athlyn, I have just spent the last half hour reading and listening to these gorgeous voices. I can't believe I had not heard of them. I collect Celtic music, and somehow I missed these. The funny story behind this was that thank goodness for the new hub karma thing. I was just linking one of my key words to a list, and like you do, I ran my cursor down the list and spotted yours. it came up, and out of curiousity I clicked on the first song, you raise me up, and of course i thought it was so fantastic without thinking I clicked the link before it started playing again. The funny thing was that i had just started to do another word when out of the pc, the lovely voices started singing! and I could'nt find it! I waited till I had finished the page and quickly clicked on the word and found you! ha ha so I am not letting you get away again! I am definetly going to buy some of their music. thanks for the great hub. thanks nell
Thanks for this lovely hub - I just love the Celtic Women - I have only just discovered them, basically over the past 8 months - their music is so pure and beautiful it is really uplifting in this day and age - thanks again....cheers
Hi Athlyn,
Until I saw the PBS special, I had not even heard of them before and now I am absolutely hooked and looking at the related hubs links on this page, I'm going to read their bios as well.
Love your page, the music is breathtaking.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful music and these videos with us. Now, I will have to go out and find one of their CDs! This group is really inspiring.
It is so refreshing to hear beautiful, unspoiled women's voices singing lovely melodies that uplift and inspire. We don't find enough of that, these days.
I am giving "You Raise Me Up" to my husband this May 28th, our 33rd wedding anniversary. What heavenly music. It made me cry.
such purity in sound. I love this group and it IS angelic. wonderful.
It is music that invokes thought.
I hope you don't mind, I linked this Hub, to one of my comments in my America We're Not Spoiled hub. http://hubpages.com/hub/America-Were-Not-Spoiled
just because I wanted all the readers to read your lovely hub and hear this music. thanks!!
I saw a couple of their productions on the BBC channel. I just love their music.
