Amazon.co.uk Review
Based on Irish folk dancing styles, Riverdance was originally devised as a 20-minute intermission entertainment for the Eurovision Song Contest. There, its phenomenal reception inspired composer Bill Whelan to expand the piece into a full-length stage show, still centred around Irish music, but now telling a loose story of many different peoples who in the twentieth century have found themselves émigrés. The paradoxically formal yet expressive, sensual and exhilarating energy of traditional Irish dance and Irish folk music is only the beginning. A work full of strong melodies, excitement, romantic dreams and nostalgic longing, the full Riverdance show is a spellbinding spectacle. Complete with orchestra, Bill Whelan brings influences from Irish classical music, incorporates the haunting sound of vocal group Anuna, and adds the diverse folk sounds of Nova Scotia, Macedonia, Russia and Andalucia to his rich cultural melting pot. Playing on the album are some of the finest folk musicians around, including piper Davy Spillane and Eileen Ivers on fiddle. The result is not just a tuneful souvenir of a great stage show, but a most enjoyable release in its own right. Bill Whelan has also worked on the soundtrack for Rob Roy, and composed The Seville Suite and The Spirit of Mayo. --Gary S. Dalkin

 Riverdance CD, 2009-04-04
I have seen Riverdance on many occasions with five different male and female lead dancers, my favourite lead male dancer being Brendan de Gallai. I love the music from the show and until now have only had it on cassette but since buying the cd I have played it almost non-stop!
I am really sorry that Riverdance The Show is coming to an end but I am so glad I was able to see the final performance in London of the farewell tour.
I will miss being able to see them again live but thankful that I have my CD to remind me of the show and remember all the wonderful dances and songs within it.

 A stirring soundtrack, 2010-07-18
I saw the Riverdance show in 1997 and had not listened to the music since. I am really enjoying the CD, although I skip over the really slow (almost dreary) tracks. Reel Around the Sun is by far the best, and it's great to have the sound of the taps on the big troupe tracks.
Music can't get any better than this, 2005-11-06
Riverdance, is one of the greatest CDs I am proud to have. There is something for everyone on it. It's beats and melodies are amazing. The title theme which doesn;t appear until track 8 is breathtaking with the haunting voice before the rythmic furore of the show's climax. Bill Whelan has surpassed himself the use of Irish traditional music and other styles including Spanish gives the album such definition it represents the best of Ireland, and best of the music establishment. Pure Genius!
Excellent CD, 2010-02-05
Just love the music by riverdance, if you buy this CD you will
not regret it such a mixture, and so good.
Spine Tingling!, 2008-05-03
Christ, this is fantastic!! I'm a huge world music fan anyway but this is something really special.
It's interesting too how they meld traditional Irish dancing with Spanish and Balkan music, absolutely thrilling entertainment! I also adore it because my Grandpa was from Ireland and he was such a gentle, kind man. Whichever way you look at it, its classy stuff and worth every penny!
