Description
Description
Anuna - the original vocal group in Riverdance - has bridged the gap between classical and popular music with its pure, haunting, emotional and mystical sound. ANUNA: CELTIC ORIGINS spans over 1,000 years of music history as 16 Anuna singers perform an ethereal blend of Irish, British, Middle English, Scots Gaelic, Medieval Irish, Latin and Greek choral music. The Gothic beauty of Cleveland's Trinity Cathedral, combined with dramatic lighting, costumes, candles and ritualistic movements, provide an atmospheric setting for the concert. During the program, Anuna founders Michael McGlynn and his twin brother John offer entertaining explanations about the origins and meanings of the group's music.
