Celtic Harp - Healing Ireland

Celtic Harp - Healing Ireland

A new original recording of the Celtic harp, which can be said to be the origin of healing instruments, in Ireland.

Ireland is a small island nation located at the far west end of Japan.
The Celtic harp, also known as the Irish harp, is played in Celtic countries such as Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and Brittany.It is much smaller than the grand harp used in classical music, and is characterized by a very rustic and warm sound.

This album was originally recorded by Della Records in Dublin, Ireland, and focuses on well-known traditional songs such as "Danny Boy" and "Sally Gardens," which were also covered by Celtic Woman.
The track features a harp solo with Irish flute and guitar added to create a rustic, pastoral yet mysterious sound.
