The twenty-one songs on this album originated as a collection of chamber works for which Brian Byrne, inspired by select poems from Irish writer James Joyce s Chamber Music (1907), set Joyce s words to original music. Byrne collaborated with over twenty artists, in addition to The RTÉ Concert Orchestra, to record his songs. The album covers a range of genres - from adult contemporary to jazz and big band, spoken word, classical, and bluegrass

Inspirational music
One of the most inspirational pieces of music I have heard for many years. A modern blend of jazz and traditional influences set to the beautiful verses of James Joyce. Featuring the fabulous voice of Kurt Elling among others, this deserves a top place in the pantheon of modern Irish music. Fall in love with it now!
