Good Night, Beloved - Sixteen - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

The works on this album tell stories of life and love, of tranquillity and stillness, some naïve and simple, others infused with complex imagery. Many will know, or half-know, Londonderry Air and the Eriskay Love Lilt. The longest among them amounts to little more than a couple of dozen lines; the shortest speaks volumes within the space of seven. This beautiful album features a stunning selection of music spanning over 500 years. From exuberant early works such as Hoyda, hoyda, jolly rutterkin and I am a jolly foster to Will Todd’s sublime Whisper Him my name, Maxwell Davies’ Lullabye for Lucy, Stanford’s glorious The Blue Bird, and a new commission from Roderick Williams, this is truly music to escape to.
