Enjoyable minus POOR audio/lighting!
The Oncenter Crouse Hinds Theater - Syracuse
Overall, we would rate this particular Celtic Woman concert on 7 out of 10 rating. Our reasons include very poor audio; couldn't understand many of the wonderful songs these incredible women sang! Also, the constant/very annoying LED light bars that were used were both extremely annoying & far, far too intense that shown directly into our eyes! Pls consider a change in the future for the super high intensity of those light bars. The three (plus of course the incredible violinist) were a solid "10"! But it was extremely difficult to understand nor know what the lyrics they were singing! We have been too many (this was #4) of previous Celtic Women concerts & sorry to say, this was overall not one of their best! Great band support (especially that bagpiper) but noticed a definite downsize of previous concerts with fewer songs & less supporting actors. However, looking fwd to season #21 tour with hopefully some needed changes/adjustments especially those LED lights!

Not the Celtic vibe I expected
DeVos Performance Hall - Grand Rapids
It seemed as the performers were merely getting through another show. Their interactions with each other were choreographed and scripted. I think if the "producers"were to let the "Celtic Woman"women lead the show and sing with each other and with the musicians as they would celebrating their heritage, it would be much better. Felt very "put on". They ALL were very talented. Held back by the [production folks] idea what they think we want. We left a little after intermission.

Words Matter

Realizing Celtic Women perform in a different venue nightly, and even said early on that it was the beginning of their US tour, the balance of instruments and voices was terrible all night. Even had a hard time understanding the spoken words between songs. Come on Sound Board Professionals, do a better job of understanding changes between and empty and full auditorium. Not enough vocal volume period, but also several instrumental equalization improvements could’ve been made. Glad I knew of most of the repertoire from PBS otherwise would’ve been a wasted evening. Do better for these amazing musicians!

Amazing talent and beautiful music!

My daughter was my “date” for this event! It was an evening that was “magical” and extremely relaxing! We have been to Ireland once and it reminded us of that trip and the wonderful memories we have! We just sat back and listened to the “angelic” Irish voices that could almost mesmerized one’s self!! Just an extraordinary experience!! We totally were amazed at how fast the dancers feet were capable of going and their talent as well! I can’t leave the talented gentleman who played the bagpipes out! He was so gifted and so easy on the ears! The efforts of all involved who had a hand in making our evening so wonderful need to be commended as well!! I would happily sit in and listen to this over and over again!! Can’t rave enough joyful praises to this event.

Love Irish music and dancing!

We loved the concert--very high energy and entertaining! At times, though, the background music overpowered the singers. Still, we would see them again. Loved it!

Amazing Performance
DeVos Performance Hall - Grand Rapids
What an Amazing show!! Every song was a concert in itself. From the Solo's to the Harmony's each note was perfect. The Musicians seemed to play their parts effortlessly. The whole Show, took you on a trip to Ireland. Can hardly wait to see them again next year.

It has been more than ten years since Celtic Woman first captured America's imagination with its self-titled first public television special. That historic concert performance launched a genuine cultural phenomenon, introducing millions of new fans to the group's fresh fusion of traditional Irish music, contemporary studio craft and state-of-the-art stage production.
Since then, Celtic Woman's evocative, uplifting music has touched the hearts of a devoted audience that spans the globe. In addition releasing CDs and DVDs that have become multi-platinum best-sellers, the group has continued to perform in front of capacity crowds on a series of sold-out concert tours.
Having been named Billboard magazine's World Albums Artist of the Year six times, Celtic Woman is a one-of-a-kind musical entity that showcases four gifted young Irish women: three world-class vocalists and a brilliant Celtic violinist, whose talent and charisma help to bring centuries of musical and cultural tradition to vibrant life in the group's recordings and concert performances.
