Review

A lovely work notable for both its cohesiveness and its aural richness, Two Horizons likely stands as the most broadly appealing solo disc (now numbering five) yet released by Clannad vocalist Moya (aka Máire) Brennan, the oft-overshadowed elder sibling of Enya. Brennan uses a mythic tale involving a much-traveled harp (a totem for all things virtuous) as the disc's thematic center, yet it is the recording's composite sound--resonant, sumptuous, never quite overblown--that inspires repeated listenings. Brennan, who takes several turns on harp, explores a satisfying middle ground between mod and medieval, blending traditional Irish instrumentation with understated electronics and, on occasion, gently propulsive rhythms (akin to what you might hear from Dido), then adorning the whole with a gossamer New Age veil. The effect, as displayed in transitions throughout the disc (such as the shift from the dreamy "Is It Now" to the techno-spiced "Mothers of the Desert"), can be mesmerizing. Like morphing clouds in an expansive sky, the disc's 15 core tracks float by in an enchanting, atmospheric procession, with no jarring disruptions (other than a tacked-on club remix at the disc's conclusion) to break the spell. --Terry Wood2003 solo album from the Clannad vocalist. Includes the bonus track 'Show Me' (Jakatta Mix). Universal.Maire (Pronounced Moya, as the Label is Now Making Clear) Brennan is "The Voice of Clannad", the International Celtic Vocal Group Built around her and her Brothers and Cousins. "Two Horizons" is a Another Beautiful Concept Album from Brennan that Builds her Personal Vision as Exemplified on her Previous Solo Efforts, Rich with the Musical Tradition Rooted her Native Land and her DEEP, Hearfelt Faith.
