Following closely and confidently in the footsteps of the stupendously popular THREE TENORS release--on which Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, and Jose Carreras turned their classically trained talents to popular song--THE IRISH TENORS employs the same formula with surprisingly fresh results. John McDermott, Anthony Kearns, and Ronan Tynan are three of Ireland`s most accomplished interpreters of national vocal music. They give passionate readings of such age-old folk songs as "Minstrel Boy," "Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go?," and "The Town I Loved So Well."
Also included are songs nearly everyone will recognize, including "Toora-Loora-Loora," "Danny Boy," and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling." But those completely unfamiliar with the rich musical traditions of the Emerald Isle are in for a wonderful discovery in these superb renditions. The disc is recorded live in Dublin with a powerhouse 60-piece orchestra. McDermott, Kearns, and Tynan each sing several songs solo and also perform as a trio, lending their alternately tender and powerful vocal treatments to these timeless Irish classics.
