Mairead is crazy! How does anybody play a violin while running and bouncing around on high heels without skipping a note!?!? So much talent it's amazing!
@Coolcow6..Mairead has a few secrets for playing that way, first is years of practice perfecting her style, second she hold the bow above the frog which gives her more control, and third the way she "tucks" the violin into her neck gives her more control of the violin itself...
I am SO SO happy that this traditional music has never been tainted by Mainstream music... (Sorry, i REALLY hate to mention him, but) .. can you imagine if someone like Justin Beiber did an Irish folk song and suddenly millions of people start saying they love this genre of music??? I think it would destroy the magic of it all :\ ... but alas, thank god that shall hopefully never happen!!
wow! This song always make me happy!! I'm jumping full of laughs n dance! hahha celtic woman, thank u for give us a chance to believe in beautiful music still exists!!!
There are amazingly talented women who have come and gone who have shown their talents thru Celtic Woman. I think rather than just bring one or two back as some would like, I think that for one special special performance, they should bring back every single member of Celtic Woman. Bring back Alex Sharpe, Órla Fallon, Lynn Hilary, Méav Ní Mhaolchatha, Deirdre Shannon, Hayley Westenra together with Chloe Agnew, Lisa Kelley, Lisa Lambe, and of course, Máiréad Nesbitt. All together on 1 stage !!
You can say all you like, but the day Mairead leaves is the day Celtic Woman is over.I mean good luck finding someone like her to play a violin like that. I dare you!
@BrightestStarlight Actually, there is! Just type in Celtic Woman Mo Ghile Mear Live in the search box and choose the one with the four girls standing in front of a red curtain.
@VersaceIRL EH hem I am white...anglo saxon and i LOVE celtic woman.....the one dislike was probably someone who is just mislead......please keep your snide remarks to yourself!
Hearing this at the end of one of their live concerts just blows you out of your seat (maybe that is why they get so many standing ovations). This recording simply doesn't do it justice.
Each time I look at this final, I can swear I'm in a Disney movie, when everyone start to sing and dance around with a magic music and magic voices. Thank you Celtic Woman for proving me that fairy tales could be true.
I had the pleasure and honor to see them in concert and they are so amazing!!!! The crowd was encouraged to clap and sing along and dance if they felt like it. Incredible women incredible performers and I was so ecstatic to have been a part of it for even one evening!!!!
This whole concert brought tears to my eyes...im moved by music anyway, but they just YANK the emotions right out of ya. Then I saw them live...I must have looked like a complete tool lol. I don't care though. They are without a doubt the most incredible musicians the planet has ever seen!
Due to overwhelming demand Celtic Woman will perform their beloved Christmas songs in a unique and more traditional symphonic setting. Parting from the majestic tour productions, A Christmas Celebration - The Symphony Tour will organically showcase the pure angelic voices of the Celtic Woman Ladies in a reverent yet dynamic live music experience accompanied by the stirring instruments of a full symphony orchestra.
"What is not in doubt, as anyone familiar with Galicia, Wales, Ireland and Brittany will well know, is the very strong emotional appeal which the idea of sharing a common Celtic heritage has. Perhaps the only real definition of a Celt, now as in the past, is that a Celt is a person who believes him or herself to be Celtic." - Barry Cunliffe <3 <3
Interested in getting Celtic Womans "Lullaby" CD,it's available for a limited time from QVC. Go to the Celtic Woman website....celticwoman . com and click on the QVC link in the first paragraph...the cost is $13.56 USD plus shipping...
Interesting @marianha, I've promised myself violin lessons when I get out of grad school just because of Ms. Nesbitt also! She has been a boon for the music industry, I guarantee!
I love Mairead! :3 All their singers are incredible too! But since the day I first saw a video of Mairead playing the violin I fell in love with the instrument! I'm now on violin lessons for half an year and she's my inspiration.I always wanted to play an instrument and I thank her for showing me which one I mostly loved! :3
@marianha12 After doing a rediscovery to childhood dreams. One of those amazing dreams is to play the violin. Twenty years old is never too late to learn to play the violin! Thank you Ms. Máiréad Nesbitt for being one of the people in this world that inspire to bring dreams to life =). Hopefully to begin violin lessons before turning twenty-one years old in February. If God says wait a few months then let it be. Amen!
@EzrahHarze I believe that you're never too late to learn something at all! Just some are lucky to be taught since they were small. And yes if God says wait then we just need to be patient.I'm 15 and I just know that I'm going to be a professional violinist no matter what! And I hope you too get your dream to come true :3
Does anyone know the name of the song Mairead plays in the intro? She played a bit of it in an interview and she referred to it by a name...but It was hard to pick up what exactly she said.
@bonzaiberryblitz..That is from the song "The Sky, The Dawn, and The Moon" you can see it/hear it on the "A New Journey" DVD or CD. It's also here on You Tube.
This finale is a great example of just how a Celtic Woman audience ends the show on such a natural high! And Mo Ghile Mear is such a crowd pleaser. Sends chills up your spine in person. And if you live in Germany, listen to gaelige101. If my memory is correct, he works in the lighting on the show...and THAT is such a HUGE part of the experience! This entire show needs to be experienced by as many in the world as possible! ENJOY!!
Thank you for the correction. A new memeber? Can't wait to hear her. David is nothing short of a genius when it comes to arranging the songs for the ladies. What he has done is unparalleled and unequaled in my opinion. I hope they go on for longer than I can imagine...which is a pretty long time. LOL
I just discovered this group this morning and I already love them. Their talents are so awesome, no one is even in the same league as them. And yes Máiréad's playing is mind-boggling. And Chloe is angelic. The first video I saw was of the group in 2007, and I was drawn immediately to Lisa and Chloë. I think it was Lynn that replaced Orla, and Alex replaced Lisa. They are still an awesome group and I look forward to collecting all of their music, including solo releases.
@cccrate63.....Ok here's the scoop.....Lisa is still with us. she hasn't gone anywhere, Lynn replaced Meav, and she has since "left" Alex has substituted for various members of the group, and became a full time member replacing Orla, she also has "left" us. So our members are now Lisa Kelly, Chloe Agnew, and of course Mairead Nesbitt. And today our newest member was announced her name is Lisa Lambe.
Just for her to be walking and playing that instrument is amazing, but for her to be jumping around and dancing while still playing it perfectly is absolutely mind-boggling.
When I saw their concert in Boston last year and this came I almost cried of sheer happiness! Teehee I LOVE Alex's smile when she takes her bow, all of them are so wonderful!
Some sad news to report....Lynn is leaving us effective immediately...If you want to see her message go to celticwoman . com and you can read it there....
I love how they just have fun performing on stage. They sing their hearts out, one question don't hate me for this but after singing that many songs don't they get a soar throat? I mean I'm a singer too but after I sing lots of songs I lose my voice for about 4 days so I'm just wondering! Please don't hate me!
@annagirl10 Hi, fair enough question no one should hate you for it. Just wondering are you giving your vocals enough warm up before singing? I sing too and there should be no reason really with the proper training and especially warming up etc to protect yourself from going sore all the time. :) Would love to hear you sing.
@annagirl10 Oh you little sh**! Oh I F***ing hate you!!!! J/K lol. How long have you been singing? You have to think that this is pretty much all they do. Just like any exercise, the more you do it, the better you become and the more endurance you build up. I'm sure the girls are more than ready for a good night's sleep after a show though :-) So my advice to you would be keep practicing and like terrastrega (Italian for Earth Witch.. interesting name lol) said, get a good warm up too!
@mattxr2i Well I started singing two years ago I'm still new to everything, I can't imagine singing all day lol. Thank you for your advice it would really help me my voice teacher only gives my voice a 10 minute warm up.
@annagirl10 I'm a violinist myself and I will need DAYS upon days of practice to even think of keeping up with Mairead! And I doubt I will ever be able to move like her while playing. (Which would be odd anyway considering I'm a guy) But I wish you good luck and I hope you do well as a singer. :-)
The drummers add such a phenomenal heartbeat to all the CW music. The entire ensemble is awesome!! IMO there are NONE better. The ladies ( in the purest sense of the word) are beyond compare. Too bad that more people have no clue what true talent and heart are.
I love how absolutely ecstatic Alex always looks. You can just see the joy pouring out of her in all the songs she sings. And Lisa looks so sweet, she seems like she'd be just the nicest lady to know. Her smiles are so sweet. I love how Chloe sings and gestures in this. It's like sometimes the joy of pouring out your heart and your voice is almost to much to bear and you'll explode. I know exactly how that is. And Lynn seems so happy to be there, I bet she'll get more confident as time goes on.
According to reviews of their concerts, this finale has been extended and rocks even more! When it comes to Celtic Woman is the best not even the best.. they always get better.
@TheGeantrai Actually, they do this, then come back on for Spanish Lady. I'm so glad they did it; they didn't on the 2008 US tour (I'm in Australia now).
These Girls are awesome but i feel not enough credit is given to the drummers, they play with so much energy and vibrance, whether they get it from the girls or vice versa its just spectacular no matter how many times you watch it!
Celtic Woman is doing a new album titled "Lullaby" it will be available through your Public Television Station beginning November 27th. I have heard it will be a thank you gift for a donation to PBS...
How come they didn't do the full version of the Finale? Usually after all the girls are onstage, they would do a part of the chorus and bow together, then do the whole chrous side to side arms thing
@mattycakes117 It's just that they did the finale differently....They started out with their trademark song.."You Raise Me Up", then they went into "Mo Ghile Mear"...This video only shows the last part....
@mattycakes117...This video is only part of the finale....The finale at this performance started with their signature song "You Raise Me Up" the girls then went offstage and the orchestra and Mairead started what you see in this particular video.
i like how lisa bows instead of doing a curtsey. lol. but i love this version as well as the one with meav, orla, and hayley. this is just different but still good.
When they played in Lexington, they did both versions of this song! It was AWESOME! And it was so cute when Mairead spoke to the crowd because she actually spoke into the mike on her violin :-)
Last night's audience in Montreal was unbelievable! Today is our first day off in awhile so we are enjoying our time in London - Ontario! Only 2 more shows in Canada until we dip back down into the US! (Although we'll be back in Canada in August...)
We have some really exciting news!!!!! The Celtic Woman SONGS FROM THE HEART DVD has received an EMMY NOMINATION for Outstanding Music Direction, by David Downes

@gaeilge101 Isn't she also the youngest in the group? I think she's 19 or 20. My favorite is always Mairead. I love how she dances around with her fiddle. An adorable lil' sprite :-)
@mattxr2i If you talking about Chloe, Yes she is the youngest she celebrated her 21st birthday this year. As for Mairead, you are right,. In interviews Mairead says she just can't stand still and play, she has to move with the music. What's really amazing is that she does it night after night, over 300 performances and going strong...
@gaeilge101 Oh trust me I know. I've pretty much seen everything there is on youtube about Mairead. I'm a violinist myself and I can play most of the songs she plays. But if I tried to dance areound like she does when she plays I would probably hurt myself or break something. Maybe both XD. I'm going to see them in August in Lexington yay!!
@mattxr2i Well I guess we'll see you in Lexington then....Mairead hasn't escaped hurting herself though....In Tempe, AZ at the Gammage Auditorium she took a fall and twisted her ankle, she jokingly refers to it as the"Damage in Gammage" and most recently she fell in Chicago but wasn't injured that time. And her baby (violin) wasn't hurt either time...
Well have a great tour anyway ..hopefully next year..I certainly agree that u deserve some rest..as I indicated bfor I'm tired for u..hehehe..so on that note I'll get plenty of sleep and rest for u..take care..Von p.s love those diary videos
We are taking the month of June off to go home for awhile. Then we will be back starting July 12 for 47 more shows, the first 8 shows will be in Canada then back to the U.S. We'll be visiting some new venues and some of our favorites ending up in Morrison CO at Red Rocks on Sep 12
@gaeilge101 dont know how u do it..those girls put out a whole lot of energy.and alot of hard work (to me)47 more shows? ur making me real tired just thinking about it...phew..any chance of coming back to Atlanta?? Love u all..hope to see u all when u get back here to Atlanta..Have a great rest of the tour..
I think the choir parts are so amazing in these performances!! :D Everything about these perforamances is so beautiful!

Just for her to be walking and playing that instrument is amazing, but for her to be jumping around and dancing while still playing it perfectly is absolutely mind-boggling.

I love how they just have fun performing on stage. They sing their hearts out, one question don't hate me for this but after singing that many songs don't they get a soar throat? I mean I'm a singer too but after I sing lots of songs I lose my voice for about 4 days so I'm just wondering! Please don't hate me!
annagirl10 1 year ago
@annagirl10 Hi, fair enough question no one should hate you for it. Just wondering are you giving your vocals enough warm up before singing? I sing too and there should be no reason really with the proper training and especially warming up etc to protect yourself from going sore all the time. :) Would love to hear you sing.

@annagirl10 Oh you little sh**! Oh I F***ing hate you!!!! J/K lol. How long have you been singing? You have to think that this is pretty much all they do. Just like any exercise, the more you do it, the better you become and the more endurance you build up. I'm sure the girls are more than ready for a good night's sleep after a show though :-) So my advice to you would be keep practicing and like terrastrega (Italian for Earth Witch.. interesting name lol) said, get a good warm up too!
mattxr2i 1 year ago
@mattxr2i Well I started singing two years ago I'm still new to everything, I can't imagine singing all day lol. Thank you for your advice it would really help me my voice teacher only gives my voice a 10 minute warm up.
annagirl10 1 year ago
@annagirl10 I'm a violinist myself and I will need DAYS upon days of practice to even think of keeping up with Mairead! And I doubt I will ever be able to move like her while playing. (Which would be odd anyway considering I'm a guy) But I wish you good luck and I hope you do well as a singer. :-)

The drummers add such a phenomenal heartbeat to all the CW music. The entire ensemble is awesome!! IMO there are NONE better. The ladies ( in the purest sense of the word) are beyond compare. Too bad that more people have no clue what true talent and heart are.

I love how absolutely ecstatic Alex always looks. You can just see the joy pouring out of her in all the songs she sings. And Lisa looks so sweet, she seems like she'd be just the nicest lady to know. Her smiles are so sweet. I love how Chloe sings and gestures in this. It's like sometimes the joy of pouring out your heart and your voice is almost to much to bear and you'll explode. I know exactly how that is. And Lynn seems so happy to be there, I bet she'll get more confident as time goes on.

How come they didn't do the full version of the Finale? Usually after all the girls are onstage, they would do a part of the chorus and bow together, then do the whole chrous side to side arms thing

@mattycakes117 It's just that they did the finale differently....They started out with their trademark song.."You Raise Me Up", then they went into "Mo Ghile Mear"...This video only shows the last part....
gaeilge101 1 year ago
@mattycakes117...This video is only part of the finale....The finale at this performance started with their signature song "You Raise Me Up" the girls then went offstage and the orchestra and Mairead started what you see in this particular video.

@gaeilge101 Isn't she also the youngest in the group? I think she's 19 or 20. My favorite is always Mairead. I love how she dances around with her fiddle. An adorable lil' sprite :-)
mattxr2i 1 year ago
@mattxr2i If you talking about Chloe, Yes she is the youngest she celebrated her 21st birthday this year. As for Mairead, you are right,. In interviews Mairead says she just can't stand still and play, she has to move with the music. What's really amazing is that she does it night after night, over 300 performances and going strong...
gaeilge101 1 year ago
@gaeilge101 Oh trust me I know. I've pretty much seen everything there is on youtube about Mairead. I'm a violinist myself and I can play most of the songs she plays. But if I tried to dance areound like she does when she plays I would probably hurt myself or break something. Maybe both XD. I'm going to see them in August in Lexington yay!!
mattxr2i 1 year ago
@mattxr2i Well I guess we'll see you in Lexington then....Mairead hasn't escaped hurting herself though....In Tempe, AZ at the Gammage Auditorium she took a fall and twisted her ankle, she jokingly refers to it as the"Damage in Gammage" and most recently she fell in Chicago but wasn't injured that time. And her baby (violin) wasn't hurt either time...
