Editorial Reviews The Celtic Bards understood the power of this inner reality. Their vocation was to keep alive the voices and the lessons of the past. In their wisdom, they knew that the transience of the present moment, the very place where music exists, is where we can most readily encounter the extraordinary beauty and tragedy of existence. Gordon Ritchie is a Celtic Harpist who follows the calling of the Bard. His long apprenticeship as a musician has endowed him with one of the hallmarks of the true craftsman - a creation of sound so pure and penetrating that it seems to spring from nature itself, effortlessly and beautifully. Expressing in a very personal way the music of his ancestors, Gordon breathes new life into an ancient tradition. Circle of Stones, his debut CD, is the culmination of many years of creative discovery. The beguiling blend of harp and voice transport the listener to a place beyond time, where music and magic are one.
Andy Donnelly Host…Celtic Show, CKUA Radio
“What a smashing wee CD. Just perfect for a Celtic Cuddle. Well done, Gordon. Be very proud of this one.”
Bryan Taylor…The Gramophone
“Recommended without reservation. Worth repeated listening.”
Album Description
Every so often, music allows us to experience a deep inner reality, resonant with the ancient wisdom of the soul. It is in these moments that we become conscious of our spiritual bond with the ancient world and its inhabitants.
