Best of Pagan Song:
Avalon Rising
Avalon Rising consists of the talents of Kristoph Klover,
Margaret Davis, Deirdre McCarthy, Beth Milne and Pete Gascoyne.
Their music has been defined as "electro-acoustic blend of
Medieval, Celtic and original"
but also contains elements of Middle eastern and Celtic harp
and flute.
In 1995 Avalon Rising released a self-titled CD which
included the song "Dark Moon Circle"
which is featured below. You can buy this CD, as well as the
2004 "Storming Heaven" CD
