Album Notes

ABOUT THE CD:
The Irish Wedding Album is specifically recorded to help couples choose the perfect music for their wedding ceremony. Having 15 years experience singing at weddings, Sarah found that many couples were unsure what songs went where in the ceremony and where they could find one CD that contained all the music they wanted to hear.

On the CD, all the hymns, songs and instrumental music are divided up according to the different parts of the ceremony. The album has 30 tracks and includes all the wedding classics, beautiful Irish and sacred pieces, and great popular music, all on one CD. The CD has been recorded specifically in different locations and using different instruments - including pipe and digital organ, Irish harp, violin, piano and Irish flute - to give the listener a very clear idea of what their favourite instruments will sound like in a large or small church setting.

ABOUT SARAH O'KENNEDY:
Sarah O’Kennedy is from Limerick, Ireland. She has been a soloist with Anuna for 9 years and has recorded, traveled and performed extensively with the world-famous group.

She was a soloist on the BBC’s Songs of Praise and performed solo for such audiences as the Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern and Irish presidents Mary Robinson and Mary McAleese. Sarah has sung at over 400 weddings, both in Ireland and abroad, including Westminster Cathedral and Our Lady's Undercroft chapel in the House of Commons.

REVIEWS

The Irish Wedding Album
author: Jane O'Byrne
One gets so tired of the collection which claims to be "the best of..." which turns out to be another ho-hum and you're sorry you shelled out your hard-earned money to buy it. The Irish Wedding Album, you'll be pleased to know, is NOT one of those. It really is a marvellous collection of The Best wedding music and also, refreshingly, is genuinely Irish. The choice is broad, covering traditional, sacred and contemporary, and gives you real options if, like me, you a planning a wedding. Sarah O'Kennedy's voice is sweet, her technique accomplished and I'm REALLY pleased with my purchase. I'm sure you will be, too! Well done, Sarah, and thanks.

Wonderful singing!!
author: John McGlynn
Having had the opportunity to hear this before Sarah released it I can't say enough things about how lovely her voice is. That, coupled with some very sensitively arranged instruments makes for an album well worth getting even if all you want to do is take your favourites out and put them on your iPod!
