An ancient muse takes us to the world of fairies and opens the book of secrets.
‘‘The music chose me rather than I it’’, she said in her early career.
Her lyrics are often based on Shakespeare and Tennyson, but her endless inspiration flows from the myths and traditions of Ireland, Morocco, Japan, Mongolia, Siberia and other countries. All the mystic stories of the world join magically with the sound of the East and the Celtic melodies.
Canadian with roots from Ireland and Scotland Loreena McKennitt (Loreena Isabel Irene McKennitt in her full name), the fairy with the Celtic harp and the unique voice in tour in the Mediterranean from 6th-24th June. She will perform with her group in open space as well as in concert halls in Morocco, Greece, Turkey, Israel, Lebanon, Hungary and Italy.

Loreena McKennitt cancelled her tour at Morocco and postponed her concerts in Greece due to a serious health problem of her mother.
In an official announcement on her personal site (www.quinlanroad.com) we read:
"I want my audience in Greece to understand how important these concerts are to me and I am extremely sorry for any inconvenience it is causing. However I have no other option but to stay by my mother’s side at this time and once her medical condition is stabilized, I hope to reschedule these dates. This may be as soon as the end of June or sometime in the future."
A new announcement for the new dates or for the refund of tickets will be made on 15th June.
