I used the link to try and buy this CD but the email I received back from MNH saying that they no longer post materials to Europe or America.  Does anyone have this CD and is willing to ship it?

Oie Voaldyn

Based on an old Manx Celebration (April 30th)& Commissioned by the Oie Voaldyn Festival, this piece of music marks the change from Winter to Summer festival, through the symbolic Black Raven which holds a special place in Manx folklore and mythology. The piece was designed to mark change for the better, working well also with Oie Houney/Hop Tu Naa the oldest unbroken tradition in the Isle of Man original which saw the bad spirits away ahead of the Winter to come.
Artists: Gilno Carswell, Aalish Kilgallon, David Kilgallon
