It is a remastered re-release of her 1987 debut album Enya. The Celts is an album by Irish musician Enya, released in 1992. Enya composed and co-arranged the music, performs all the vocal and keyboard parts, and veritably makes a new instrument of her voice complemented by Uillean pipes, violin, electric guitar. The artist is definitely charting some new musical territory, in her blending of classical, medieval, traditional, new age idioms with totally new, original and experimental ones. This is Enya's debut album (previously issued under the title Enya), and it's truly glorious multi-layered harmonies, chords like a church choir and the magic of ancient Celtic culture.
