Legacy, Volume Two is the much-anticipated follow-up album to the chart-topping Legacy, Volume One, released in February 2016. Legacy Volume Two picks up from where Volume One left off and features all new recordings of Celtic Thunder’s best-loved hits and fan favorites in an exciting collection of performances and song from Celtic Thunder.
Legacy is an exciting new live show that celebrates the influence of Irish and Celtic music around the world and the imprint that such music has made. Lively, fast paced and upbeat songs A Place in The Choir, Galway Girl and Raggle Taggle Gypsy represent the fun loving nature of the Irish while the slower classic ballads Black Velvet Band, Noreen and Mountains of Mourne play to their nostalgic and romantic side. Featuring all new recordings, the songs on Legacy are varied in style and run the gamut from classic Irish folk songs and ballads such as Danny Boy and Buachaille On Eirne to the more contemporary hits Falling Slowly and Ride On and rousing anthems Caledonia and Ireland’s Call.
The Emperor of Atlantis declares a war of all against all and proclaims that his old ally Death will spearhead the campaign. Offended by the Emperor’s insolence, Death refuses to let anyone die, wreaking havoc throughout the world. Der Kaiser von Atlantis's origin as the only surviving opera composed in a Nazi concentration camp elevates it to a unique memorial against forgetting. Yet in the Deutsche Oper am Rhein’s production, the parable of living death is never cautionary, but ominous, disturbingly comical and deeply human.
