En su cuarta grabación en solitario (nominado para el "Top 10 Folk Release of 2000" por el Boston Globe), Connie Dover agrupa las baladas más emotivas de las Islas Británicas y los coloca al lado de las canciones populares de América que surgieron de la tradición celta. Estas son las canciones que cruzaron el océano en los corazones de los inmigrantes que llegan a florecer de nuevo en la frontera norteamericana: canciones de aventura, nostalgia y esperanza. La poderosa y pura voz de Dover es exhibida en la rica acústica acompañado por legendarios instrumentistas de ambos lados del Atlántico.
Realizado con una deliciosa y rara profundidad emocional, La frontera del cielo revela la conexión musical entre América y la cultura celta como nunca hemos oído antes. Con visión y gracia, Connie Dover transporta a los oyentes hacia la frontera del cielo y más allá.
