Title: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD? Post by: CWazyTom on July 14, 2017, 12:39AM Technically, Divinas is a group DVD, although I'm pretty sure Méav was the primary focus for everyone here. But, if I included a non-Celtic-Woman group DVD like Divinas, I had to expand the list to include Rocktopia too.
If I forgot one, please let me know. Title: Re: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD? Post by: Celtic Chan on July 14, 2017, 11:06AM I'll have to go with Divinas. ;)
Title: Re: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD? Post by: CWazyTom on July 14, 2017, 12:05PM This was actually really hard.
In the end I had to go with Chloë's DVD. Even though it doesn't have any special features, Chloë herself is a special feature. Plus, some of the scenes were shot at Powerscourt, which gets me giddy on account of SftH being recorded there. It's too bad she didn't get to show off more of her personality, but that voice ... The song choices / arrangements were really moving and they were accompanied with such beautiful scenes. Title: Re: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD? Post by: Emer Dreamer on July 23, 2017, 06:13PM It was tough for me as well. Orla's Celtic Christmas and Hayley's gave me pause. But I had to go with the Divinas. In this one, Meav got to inject a more intimate type style. I don't know anyone who can combine the seemingly disparate elements of melancholy and raw sensuality as Meav does. That is one of the many reason Meav is highly regarded world wide in the Classical Crossover genre. ;)

I haven't been to the Wolftrap before. I've only seen it in pictures and videos. It seems like a very nice place for a concert. Title: Re: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD? Post by: CWazyTom on August 12, 2017, 04:51PM I have to say, I was extremely tempted to pick Orla's Christmas DVD.
Not only did it have Méav (Orla and Méav's first reunion since their Celtic Woman days), but if you pay close attention, it has Eabha in the Anuna choir for Away In A Manger. :o The first time I saw that after she joined Celtic Woman that just about blew my mind. :D Title: Re: What's your favorite 'solo' DVD?
