Lilium - the Lily - symbolises Purity, Beauty and Serenity, so is a fitting title for Siobhán's third album which has been produced to showcase the purity and beauty of Siobhán's voice and the serenity of her delicate harp playing. Siobhan, who celebrated her 17th Birthday part way through the recording process, started classical voice lessons at the age of 9 and took up the harp 2 years ago. Born in Wales with Welsh and Irish heritage, it's no wonder Siobhán has inherited a love of music and embraced her Celtic background! Siobhan is a student at Adelaide University's Elder Conservatorium of Music, studying Classical Voice.
These beautiful acoustic songs have been recorded in an intimate concert style setting. The Celtic pieces were recorded at Chapel Lane Studio with Siobhan accompanying herself on her Celtic Harp. The Classical pieces were recorded at the University of Adelaide's "Hartley Concert Room" with Malcolm Day on the Steinway Grand Piano. The bonus track on the CD is a jazz piece "It's Only a Paper Moon" which was recorded at Chapel Lane Studio.
This album is dedicated to my taid* (Ken Owen) who passed away suddenly in July 2010.
*taid = grandfather in Welsh
