The Celtic Tenors - Red is the Rose [Official Video]

The video "Red is the Rose" by The Celtic Tenors is part of a series of three videos. Filmed in February 2020 at Emlagh Bog, Kells, Co. Meath, Ireland, it features a beautiful, Irish folk song. This love song sees the singer's love far exceed the beauties of nature. There is also, great sadness here too in true old Irish song fashion. It shares the tune (and basic theme) with the Scottish song, Loch Lomond. For over two decades, the Celtic Tenors have been charming audiences the world over with their rich harmonies, disarming wit as radiating their love for all that is Ireland. This is from our album, An Irish Songbook, reissued March 1st, 2024! Listen here - https://lnk.to/ishbk With four unreleased tracks: Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears The Isle of Innisfree The Salley Gardens The Dutchman Embark on a journey through the heart of Ireland with "An Irish Songbook." Featuring a captivating blend of traditional Irish folk melodies, this re-released collection unveils the rich tapestry of Ireland's musical heritage with renewed vigour. At its core lies the poignant focal track, "Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears," a stirring narrative that chronicles the spirit of Annie Moore, the first immigrant to tread upon America's shores through Ellis Island. Through their touching vocals and evocative instrumentals, The Celtic Tenors capture the bittersweet essence of leaving one's homeland for the promise of new beginnings.
