We are in full production on three new songs for the next AOMUSIC album, due out in early 2013… Our first stop was County Galway, Ireland where we recorded a brilliant group of children with one of today’s great composers Bill Whelan… We recorded the children in Bill’s studio on Ireland’s Western Coast.. They will be featured on the next AOMUSIC album with other children‘s choral ensembles from around the globe… The Irish music tradition is ever-present on AOMUSIC‘s palette of world homogeny, and Bill Whelan‘s involvement now brings greater authenticity to that lovely hue…

Ireland is steeped in poignant history and mystic lore, and making music on her soil with her children and one of her most gifted maestros is a great honor for AOMUSIC.
