CD Reviews

Accomplished inspiring harp music

(5 out of 5 stars)

"As a harpist myself I'm collecting many harp cds from many different performers, and of them all, Jo Morrison's The Three Musics stands out head and shoulders above the rest. Her mix of gentle lullabies with traditional marches and jigs, plus the addition of well chosen instruments (clarinet, cello, hammered dulcimer) to pad out the wonderful harp playing makes this a must-have recording. This is the cd that captures everything about celtic harp for me, and it has everyone smiling and tapping their feet when it gets played.
If you are new to harp music, this is a great introdution, and if you love this kind of music but somehow missed Jo's talents, its time to add this to your collection. The sheet music featuring her arrangements for many of the songs is also available for musicians to enjoy."
