Loreena_McKennitt An_Ancient_Muse Vinyl
Loreena McKennitt’s seventh studio release, An Ancient Muse, was a 2007 Grammy nominee for Best Contemporary World Music Album. 
 
McKennitt’s travels to Mongolia, Northwest China, Turkey and Greece inform the music on this album, which explores our common human quests to love and be loved, and the need for liberty and spirituality.
 
Recorded at Real World Studios and featuring a host of acclaimed musicians, An Ancient Muse proffers a treasure trove of instruments, from harp, hurdy-gurdy and accordion to oud, lyra, kanoun and nyckelharpa (the Scandinavian keyed fiddle). 
 
Available as a numbered, 180-gram audiophile-quality vinyl record which also includes a free digital download coupon. It was pressed in an edition of just 10,000 copies at Record Industry in the Netherlands.
