Description
In The Holly & The Ivy, a tiny harp flourish hangs like frost in the air, then the cello steps in and everything steadies. McKennitt’s A Midwinter Night’s Dream leans into old carols and winter poems with her lucid, traveling-folk palette. Snow, Archibald Lampman’s verse set to song, moves with a calm tread; The Seven Rejoices of Mary swirls with fiddle and harp; Good King Wenceslas walks with stately warmth.
This transparent red LP opens up the space around her voice. The sleeve art also shines at full size. Recorded with long-time collaborators at Real World Studios and produced by McKennitt, it’s a seasonal set that rewards quiet rooms and attentive ears. It’s a good companion for a hushed Melbourne evening.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy Loreena McKennitt records online with us.
File it beside Clannad on the shelf, close to the ’90s Celtic crossover that prized atmosphere and storytelling, though McKennitt’s arrangements are more traveler’s notebook than new-age gloss. Between evergreen traditionals and her globalist instrumentation, this one sits comfortably in rotation well past December. Keep it handy when the nights draw in.
Add it to your collection today, available online or in our Melbourne record store.
