The Celtic Box (La Boîte à Celtique)


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
I was looking in my memory the melody of this little music box, at my grandparents house, which made me asleep when I was a kid ...
As I couldn't remember it, I composed the Celtic box that reminds me a bit.
I dedicate this song to my granddaughter Lou who was born on September 20 last.

music box of chocolate
Well, you invented something just as beautiful as any wistful music box... and played it and recorded it sweetly indeed. It sounds like many of these are open strings, the guitar just glows with resonance... in some ways, the music and rich sound begins to sound a bit like a Mountain Dulcimer :-)

Congratulations Lou, what a wonderful piece of music for your birthday!

Very nice work!
ttfn,
Drakonis

Sweet tune
Very nice ... the melody reminds me of Carolan's harp tunes.

Beautifully played, with warmth of tone and expression.

And I would never have believed you were old enough to have a granddaughter!
