'Musique Celtique', Orealis's debut for Green Linnett Records, features the band's original line-up with Kirk MacGeachy (vocals and guitar), Jim Stephens (hammered dulcimer, bouzouki, whistles) and Renee Morin (synthesizers). Backing vocals are provided by none-other-than Kate and Anna McGarrigle and percussion by Michel Dupire. The album is a beautiful tapestry of songs and instrumentals. The music is atmospheric and exciting with scintillating production (courtesy Johnny Cunningham ) giving a big sweeping sound.

"Simply put, Orealis's self-titled debut for Green Linnett is a revelation, a marvelous mix of modern synthesizer textures with centuries-old musical style."
