Return To Peace: A Celtic Journey Through Central America
by Mark Dunn —
Dunn’s journey to Latin America inspired the tunes on this instrumental album, but his family’s Irish heritage (and the practicality of composing on a pennywhistle while traveling) gives the recording a Celtic sound.
He performs on piano and pennywhistle, backed by some of the best local musicians.
The arrangements offer the softer side of Dunn’s contemporary instrumental music, a cross between new age and Celtic, with hints of Olde English/Renaissance, jazz and world music gently mixed in.
