Editorial Review:
Album Description: "When Ronan sings the clouds cry but the sun turns up sooner than it would have."—Bono
Ronan Tynan’s newest release, The Dawning of the Day, is a collection of faith based songs that are an extension of Ronan’s artistic being and his ever-evolving career as a singer. Brown Bannister, the award-winning producer know for his work in the Christian community with Amy Grant, is the man behind the controls for this latest Tynan effort.
Ronan has achieved worldwide fame as a member of the Irish Tenors. Now his singular voice and irresistible appeal have led him to strike out on his own, a decision that has resulted in something far more meaningful than a mere solo career.
Amazon.com: For his second solo release, the former Three Irish Tenors member has decided to concentrate on songs of faith for which, given his oft-repeated history of triumphing over various obstacles, he would seem to be ideally suited. As on his debut effort, the orchestral arrangements are florid and the context strictly middle-of-the-road. For many listeners, his 9/11-vintage, a cappella rendering of "Amazing Grace" was a high point of his career, and one or two more sparsely arranged or even unaccompanied tracks might have been perfect for this album. There is no material of deeply Celtic context, other than "Morning Has Broken," a song associated with British folk singer Cat Stevens which was in fact lifted note-for-note from a Scottish Christmas carol called "Leanabh An Aigh." Tynan performs it as a duet with country star Vince Gill, who actually sounds more in synch with the soaring folkloric purity of the melody. Basically, Tynan is a fine example of what a pop tenor should sound like; as with Andrea Bocelli and others of that ilk, he aims to please and this he does surpassingly well. --Christina Roden

Beautiful recording. Excellent as a gift for someone who has recently lost a loved one, or needs inspiration.

A wonderful CD of great songs by the best Irish tennor ever. Ronan sings an entire CD of beautiful songs.

The orchestra seemed to overwhelm the singer. I wanted to hear his great voice--but it didn't happen for me.

Ronan Tynan has one of the great voices of our time. These selections are thoughtful and wonderfully performed. An absolute pleasure to listen to.

This recording did not have the depth, clarity or inspiration that the "Ronan" CD has. There's just no comparison. The songs of course are more gentle and thoughtful, but the recording just doesn't show me the quality and "ring" of Ronan Tynan's voice. Good, but not great. "Ronan" on the other hand was exceptional!
