Enya is such an international superstar that the Irish lass has earned the right to take on a whole season, not just a holiday. Opening single "Trains and Winter Rains" and "White Is In the Winter Night" feature the syncopated New Age atmospherics (think really, really dense "Orinoco Flow") so associated with the Celtic singer, whereas cuts such as "Journey of the Angels" and "Stars and Midnight Blue" are so gorgeously ethereal, it is easy to imagine them floating right off the CD. Traditional carols are breathtakingly delivered.
