Nights from the Alhambra

From: $16.59

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.

From: Amazon Posted: May 31, 2008 Type: User Review Great stuff!

Probably the best compendium of her work (and a great DVD too, as this gives the audience the chance to see Loreena's really outstanding musicians show off their 'stuff!'), this and 'Ancient Muse' are two of my favorite CD's!! More! More!!

From: Amazon Posted: May 27, 2008 Type: User Review Loreena is great

Saw her live and enjoyed her and the band very much.
I was hoping this CD and DVD would recreate that experience
and it mostly does. If you like her music I think
this is definitely worth the money.

If there is a singing goddess it is Loreena McKinnett and Nights from the Alhambra is proof. The only problem with her music is that it seems to reverberate in your mind long after each performance. Her vocals are unforgettable and the...

I really enjoyed watching the DVD when I got this. The visuals include some almost 'arty' cut-aways from the stage set to show some of the surrounding architecture etc including some interesting outside day shots. Very well done and appropriately...

This is an incredible concert. The musicians were perfect! I thought the chello player was particularly gifted. It was a delight to hear so many different and unique instruments.
