Description:

Celtic music is widely loved in modern society. However, it is not really known whether "Celtic music" really originates from the Celtic peoples. Although it is basically reminiscent of Scottish and Irish music, it is in fact the music of the descendants of Celtic peoples, whose music is distributed over a wide area from the British Isles to Brittany in France, Asturias in Spain, Portugal, and Canada, and each has its own distinct musical style. McFarlane, a master luthier, has created a "Celtic" album by mixing Irish and Scottish folklore with works by O'Carolan, who was active in the 17th century. The music is simple and beautiful, and is based on O'Carolan, who was blind but traveled extensively and played for almost 50 years.
