Trained as a concert-pianist, Ciara Considine took a trip back to
her cultural roots in making an album of Ireland's much-loved
traditional folk songs. It all started as something she wanted to do
for her neice and nephews who were curious about their Irish heritage.
Now released, Ciara's debut album is titled "Ó Mo Chroí "- Irish for
"Of My Heart" from an old Irish saying. Recorded in MA Studios UK with
Noel Rafferty, each of these folk songs has been musically arranged by
Ciara with subtlety, making the album intimate, mystical and raw. A
one-woman-album, she sings and plays all 8 instruments on the CD. There
is nothing commercialized or 'airbrushed' about this album: produced
independently, it bears the hall-mark of a sincere recording that
reaches into the hearth of a home.
