Summary: Beautiful and haunting, just like her sister.
Comment: I discovered Maire through being a fan of her sister Enya who've I've been listening to for some 20 some-odd years. Maire's vocal style seems more Irish to me and I appreciate the contrast even though they sound a lot alike. In some ways her music sounds more modern, but it doesn't distract from the excellent ethereal qualities of her voice. I'm very glad to have discovered her.

Summary: Etheral Journey
Comment: This album is a bit more of a depature for Maire. There is less traditional style elements, and more 'modern Celtic new age' themes.
Continues with the religious themes brought up in 'Perect Time' this does push more toward Enya's style.
The copy I acquired was printed in Japan so I got a bonus track only available on that copy.
As always she has such a style in mixing Gaelic and english lyrics.
This goes beyond the typical Clannad albums and is truely more etheral and surreal. Wonderful mood music.

Summary: Perfect Time Part II...but with a different style
Comment: In trying to put my finger on what makes Whisper different from Perfect Time, I guess you could say is that it has a different style. It's still Moya but from a different musical perspective. Good music, always beautiful voice, but just not as magical to me as was Perfect Time.
My favorite song is Be Thou My Vision. This is 95% Moya's voice and a little background music but oh how beautiful this song is! This song puts you in a different place and takes your breath away. My only hit on this song is that it is way too short! Moya sings Gaelic so beautifully that I think your soul just sings along with her and fills your heart with joy.
Other favorites include Peacemaker and In God's Presence. Peacemaker features a child speaking in Gaelic and Moya filling in musically between spoken verses--a different kind of song altogether and your can feel the passion of the guitar playing along with Moya's voice. In God's Presence is a choir song with Moya singing along with a church choir. Like Song of David in Perfect Time, this song moves my soul.
Don't be put off by Moya's Christian influence here. This is music anyone can listen to. The only thing you will feel is uplifted and satisfied at hearing good collection of songs by Moya.

Summary: Lost On The Moors ~ Contemporary Isn't Necessarily Better
Comment: I hate to say it but Maire Brennan's 'Whisper to the Wild Water' is the least favorite CD to be found amongst my Clannad, Enya, Maire collection. Yes her voice is beautiful as always but it seems somewhat lost and out of place in the techno-pop music that dominates this -13 track- CD. Those tracks that do manage to stay away from the contemporary beat fair a little better but still not up to past performances and material.
If you want just one or maybe two Maire CD's in your collection this is not the one to get.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Maire's (or Moya's) Crowning Jewel!
Comment: Alright. This to me is the cd where Maire Brennan has found her own unique place in the music world. This cd has all the elements of "Perfect Time" (her previous release) but done even better and has the added touch of a few more upbeat numbers that are very special and memorable. No filler at all on this one! It's very solid and just as soothing as her previous cd but there's definite growth to be found here.
There's no denying that her younger sister Enya is a very tough act to follow, but I must say that this cd finds Maire equal to Enya in her own way finally! I won't point out each song to you as that's kind of what the samples are for, but each and every song on here is great and a few are exceptionally great!
This is a journey you can lose yourself in. A Must buy for ANY Enya fan!

Editorial Reviews:

Whisper to the Wild Water is a sweet sonic journey of liquid swirling arrangements and the frothy mellifluous wash of Máire Brennan's looping vocals. Here the singer for her family band, Clannad (and elder sister to the better-known Enya), ventures farther astream from her previous solo efforts to incorporate more flutes, pipes, and Celtic traditional touches amid her penchant for spiritual themes and the light world rhythms of drum loops. Ever mindful of familial strength, Brennan collaborated on the writing of this collection with her husband, duets with her mother on one cut, and features her 5-year-old son intoning the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi in Gaelic. Singing in both English and the tongue of her native County Donegal, Brennan creates a work that, while not overtly Christian, is gently uplifting and attuned to the healing properties of song. Like a cradle rocked by the sea's lulling tide, Whisper to the Wild Water soothes, pacifies, and guides the listener to a delicious place of well being. --Paige La Grone
