Faery Music ~ You know you've heard it somewhere before....WishFaery Book Links ~ Faery Music
 
There are so many excellent pieces of music that have been recorded — and some of it borders on the fantastic. We've listed below such CDs as we could remember (you know how time spent in Faerie messes with your memory!). Some of them are wonderful. Some of them are incredible. Some of them take you there. Here are just a few we thought should be shared.
 
We've provided a direct link to each listing on Amazon.com, to make it easier for you to find out more information about the CDs, perhaps even to sample the tunes via Amazon's site. The link should open in a new window , to make it easier to get back to WishFaery. When you've finished browsing through Amazon.com's site, simply close their browser to return to ours.
 
We're music addicts. No two ways about it. If you have a CD with Faery music on it, and we don't have it listed, please do us the favor of telling us about it! Got a comment or a suggestion? We'd love to hear from you!

This particular artist's work isn't visible on amazon.com, so we're linking directly to his site, EarthDance Music . Richard Searles may often be found at the various Harvest Festivals. His music spans ancient instrument, renaissance dance music, medieval songs and dances and Celtic instrumental music.
