Beautiful tranquil Celtic pieces. "a sweeping epic of Celtic harp music" - Harpbeat of the Bay Fall.
Margie Butler grew up in musical surroundings and music runs in her family. Her true musical vocation was realised when she discovered the Celtic folk harp. Tales about harps and the magical powers of their music weave throughout the Celtic speaking world. Celtic harps have a light, clear, often ethereal sound that lets you recall the ancient magic.
