"Everything - Chopin, Christy Moore, Maria Callas, Ella Fitzgerald, Cara Dillon....anything that has conviction...and the 4 l'il ones in the family, they inspire me!"
Having trained as a concert-pianist, Ciara Considine took a trip back to her cultural roots and made an album of Ireland's much loved traditional songs. It started as something she wanted to do for her niece and nephews who were curious about their Irish heritage. Released in April 2008, Ciara's album is titled Ó Mo Chroí meaning Of My Heart - from an old Irish saying. Recorded in MA Studios UK with Noel Rafferty, the songs speak of love, family, famine and emigration. A one-woman-album, she sings and plays all 8 instruments on the CD. Receiving good reviews and radioplay, the album has attracted growing interest in the UK, Ireland, Italy, Germany, USA, Canada and Japan. It's available on iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, Payplay, CD Baby and Napster. To buy or download Ciara Considine's album visit her website: www.ciaraconsidinemusic.com/products.html
Hi Ciara, How wonderful it is that you think of me at times. You're such a sweetheart. Since we've met my daily routine is to listen to your album, then start my normal playlist. I have you in the playlist too, but it's on random and your music inspires me more so I have to just play the CD.
Have you ever done anything with Celtic Woman? I've been thinking about putting a word in for you but don't want to look dumb if you're already hooked up. You know how busy I am, so I haven't spent any time doing reasarch. Much easier to ask. Funner too since you are so beautiful. :)
