Album Description
Mick McAuley & Winifred Horan, Serenade (***½) The accordionist and fiddle player from Celtic band Solas make an album for people who can't tell a jig from a reel. Whether playing in unison so tight they sound like a single instrument or multitracking velvet vocals, McCauley and Horan show themselves as purists for melody and little else. The gentle lilt of The Joyous Waltz and Little Mona Lisa adds charming rhythmic variety, and the duo tops things with a pair of gorgeous covers, Neil Young's After the Gold Rush and a version of Bob Dylan's Make You Feel My Love worthy of the Everly Brothers. —Brian Mansfield, USA Today

Vintage Guitar
"...as lush and sweet as a full cup of freshly tapped Guinness."

Hartford Courant
"The pair's instruments swirl together into a pleasant, meticulously organized sonic mesh, issuing crisp morsels of melodic punctuation..."

Customer Reviews

Serenade
I became enchanted with Winifred Horan when I bought her debut CD. This is more of the same fabulous Celtic style modern music and extremely enjoyable. I highly rate it for their individual talent as well as the music they chose. I LOVE it!

Serenade - Title says it all
Great Album. I had never heard of this performer before. I saw a show on TV that used the waltz - A daisy in December. My wife loved the tune and after a bit of web surfing...I found it. What a fantastic album. One of my new favorites.
