Summary: A special performance by Loreena McKennitt
Comment: This cd/DVD set of Loreena McKennitt's performance in the beautiful and mystical Alhambra is indeed very special for her fans as well as newcomers to her enchanting voice and unusual instruments. Applause time is minimal with more time for the music, which is clear and lovely. The DVD and optional commentary in which she speaks of the history of the Alhambra is educational as well as beautiful. Thanks to Loreena McKennitt for this special performance.

Summary: PLAY THE DVD!
Comment: I had the album for quite a while before I played the DVD. It's fantastic and maybe the first time I understood where all these amazing sounds come from. The music is wonderful, many of the songs I like even more than the studio version (how often does that happen?). But don't miss the DVD, it's simply amazing!

Editorial Reviews:

An enchanting musical performance, set beneath the stars in the breathtaking Moorish heart of medieval Spain. Captured in concert in September 2006, singer/composer Loreena McKennitt leads viewers through the multi-textured landscapes of her catalog, from traditional Celtic ballads to literary narratives and highlights from her latest recording, An Ancient Muse.

Filmed in rich HDTV, Nights from the Alhambra evokes the otherworldly magic of Granada's palace of dreams, the fiery and inspired performances of a stellar cast of supporting musicians and, of course, the unforgettable voice and songs of Loreena McKennitt herself. The package includes the complete footage on DVD and 2 separate audio CDs that encompass the complete evening.
