NIGHT RIDE ACROSS THE CAUCASUS

Loreena McKennitt is a Canadian singer whose name I heard two or more years ago from my cousin. He told me that this woman is a very famous and talented singer around the world. The voice of her is already appreciated by the world. She uses Italian, Turkish, Greek, Spanish themes in her songs and her style is called Celtic music of Western European people.  According to some rumors, her ancestors were from North Caucasia and this claim may be supported by her song named ''Night Ride Across The Caucasus''. I want to talk about this song. This song is my favorite of hers because no matter how long it is, I don't get bored of it listening. This rhythm is so relaxing and satisfying that especially in the moment of getting into sleep, I just feel it by heart. The violins and the soft rhythm of the drum make the song attractive to a wide range of music listeners. In the lyrics of this song, she tells about the horse riders which probably implies Caucasian people's interest in riding. She also mentions silent forests, huge seas, sleeping hills which are the prettified features of this region and the cathedrals, dancing, musics forming the culture. I also advice you to listen the other songs of her, for example 'between the shadows' and 'LaSerenissima' are my other favorites. To sum up, Loreena McKennitt immediately comes in our minds when we are talking about Celt music and her each song is worth listening.
