Synopsis

Album Description

Wondrous Love is a collection of inspirational hymns performed in a unique blend of Celtic, baroque and new age styles: relaxing, warm vocal performances accompanied by keyboard and accoustic instruments. Extremely popular on Christian radio, two songs from Wondrous reached #1 on the CMRadio's charts last year. These are timeless Celtic and Appalachian hymns; compelling and deeply spiritual songs, seldom heard by contemporary Christian audiences - tunes that have slipped through various sets of lyrics, across national boundaries and, in some cases, across a thousand years, are now made accessible to 21st century audiences through Caroline's haunting vocals. Wondrous Love takes these hymns to an entirely new place of meditation, of comfort, of freedom.

CD Reviews

Simply Angelic

Tom Bozeman | Bozeman, MT USA | 07/02/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Caroline Bowles has combined heartfelt simplicity with bell-like clarity in rendering this tasteful collection of hymn tunes. The ensemble supporting her is skilled and creative, yet the most compelling aspect of this cd is Caroline's unmannered crystal clear voice. Her instrument soars with the passion and grace of a lark. The tunes are profoundly simple. They seem chosen to embed themselves ever so sweetly in the heart of the listener. I highly recommend this wonderful collection."

"An angelic interpretation of celtic folk songs -- spiritual in the true sense of the word. Highly recommended."

LOVE this CD

"I just wanted to tell you that I LOVE this CD! I've never been a big fan of celtic folk music - what little I've heard has always seemed rather alien to me. I think that Caroline Bowles does an outstanding job of making our "heritage" hymns more accessible to the average listener. It has definitely left me wanting to hear more."
