Movie Review: Another Triumph!
Summary: 5 Stars
Celtic Thunder adds to their triumphal debut album with this second entry in the series. This time, they're on the road in Ontario, Canada with a live show, and a huge crowd who seem to be made up of enthusiastic Celts, judging by the Irish dancing in the aisles and the signs being waved. The most remarkable aspect of the show is the change in both voice and appearance of young Damian McGinty, now almost 17 years old, and two years removed from the debut performance in Ireland. It is a bit sad to hear his voice has deepened considerably, as he's grown into a taller young man (he's not the little boy you remember from 2007), but his voice now has a new and wonderful quality. There have been changes in singing arrangements necessitated by this: Ryan Kelly now handles some of the "boy soprano" parts and Mr. McGinty has taken over the lead singing on numbers such as "Steal Away". The addition of two instrumental numbers of the purely Celtic variety allows the showcasing of the musical talents of Neal Byrne, Barry Kerr and a very talented all-female string section, composed of what appears to be two sisters on violins, a viola player, and Megan Sherwood on Cello. They also contribute their vocal talents accompanying Damian on two of his solos. Just as in the first show from Dublin, one sees the end with a regret of not having been there. The act has not visited the American south, except for Atlanta (as far as I know), so I hope someday to see them in person. They have brought true musical joy to thousands of followers around the world, and it's hard to imagine them giving a performance that is not a sellout audience. I highly recommend them and "Take Me Home" is as worthy introduction if you haven't heard them before. However, don't neglect to get the first album, "Celtic Thunder-The Show" to hear young Damian as he will never be heard again, singing "Come By The Hills" and "Bird Without Wings" in performances you will never forget.
