Capercaillie

This 25 track album contains music written especially for three television programmes: The Blood is Strong, a series about the world-wide legacy of the Gaels. A Prince Among Islands: A documentary about Prince Charles' return to the Isle of Bernaray, Highlanders: A programme celebrating the history and heritage of the Scottish Highlands narrated by Sean Connery in which he described Karen as having a voice 'Surely touched by the hand of God'. This album showcases the atmospheric and evocative side of the bands music.
