Summary: Loreena is great
Comment: This is a great album for my collection. I am not impressed with the recording but overall 2CD and a DVD is great for the price. Please note the CD is the same live performance of the show not the studio recording.

Summary: Kevin - New Zealand
Comment: Loreena McKennitt played live in NZ about 10 years ago and it was one of the most amazing concerts I have ever been to. This DVD / CD combo is a must for all fans. Wonderful entertainment.

Summary: Stunning video and superb music
Comment: I am a long-time fan of Loreena, having all of her previous volumes, and even a few songs on speed dial, so it was with great anticipation I awaited this, her first album since her fiancee's death. As with her many previous works, the music is utterly superb and the video was a visual treat. For those of you who are fans, this is a must-have. For those of you who like good Celtic music, this is a must-have. For those of you who love the music of angels, this is an absolute must-have. Take the time and spare the money to get it. You will not be disappointed.

Summary: Awesome!
Comment: When I first heard the CD's it was readily apparent that the instrumental accompaniment was much richer. But Loreena's voice is just as dazzlingly beautiful and enchanting as ever.

However, when I watched the DVD - I was absolutely blown away!

The interaction of all on stage is phenomenal. You can see and feel the energy riding the musical currents that were created that night.

It is an awesome DVD and any who have only heard the CDs - I emphatically encourage you to get and watch/listen to the DVD.

Totally amazing!

Customer Rating:

Summary: Fantastic!
Comment: This concert brings together several other performances. It was so good, I had to order another copy to share with my sister and her husband - the variety of instruments was fascinating. Definitely worth the price (twice!)

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.
