Echoes of the Swan Children: A Celtic Tale of Loss, Magic, and Time - Celtic music

Step into a world shaped by mist, moonlight, and ancient memory.
This Celtic album brings the legend of The Children of Lir to life through haunting melodies and cinematic soundscapes.

“Echoes of the Swan Children” blends traditional Irish folk instruments — harp, fiddle, uilleann pipes, bodhrán — with atmospheric orchestral textures, soft choirs, and whispering vocals that feel carried on the wind. The result is a sound both timeless and ethereal, where every note seems to rise from water, stone, and distant centuries.

Inspired by Ireland’s most tragic myth, the album follows four royal children turned into swans, wandering through storms, lakes, centuries, and the slow turning of the world. Each track mirrors a chapter of their journey — from innocent childhood to enchanted exile, from moonlit loneliness to fragile rebirth.

🌫️ Track-by-Track Mystical Journey

00:00 1. Children in the Sun
A golden beginning — laughter in the courtyard, banners lifting in warm morning light.

03:35 2. Eyes at the Door
Jealousy gathers like a quiet storm, its shadow long before the spell is spoken.

Transformation beneath the moon; four children bound to feathers, tide, and sorrow.

10:03 4. Nine Hundred Winters
Centuries unfold across cold lakes and iron skies, where storms speak louder than memory.

13:50 5. To the Western Tide
The sea calls them onward; waves become a road of salt, wind, and longing.

16:54 6. Across the Moonlit Reach
Loneliness drifts across silver waters, the weight of ages settling in soft white wings.

19:38 7. Bell on the Shore
A distant chapel bell heralds change — a new faith rising, and an old curse trembling.

23:14 8. At the Edge of Dawn
The spell weakens; wings tremble; dawn becomes a fragile doorway back to humanity.

26:49 9. Children of the Tide
Returned to human form, frail and ancient, they step onto a shore that no longer remembers them.

29:59 10. On the Green Hill
Their story finds peace atop a quiet hill of heather, where feathers and souls finally rest.
