Bryn Terfel: Songs of My Welsh Home

The reviewers say:
The Sunday Herald (Halifax):
"The elegant simplicity of these old-fashioned tunes is a testament to the musicality of Welsh culture…[Terfel] is a rarity - a trained classical singer who can interpret traditional repertoire without sounding like he’s carefully picking his way through a poor neighborhood in top hat, silk scarf, white kid gloves and tails….Not only that, but his range of vocal colour is astonishing…The attractiveness of the songs, their picturesque melodies and above all, Terfel’s beautiful voice, give this CD a claim to be heard by the wider world."
- Stephen Pedersen

The Record (Kitchener):
"Bryn Terfel is celebrated as one of the world’s great bass-baritones….The album’s 19 tracks feature Welsh traditional songs, folk songs, hymns and song settings of some of Wales’s finest poets, past and present. Fans will want to pick up [this] release to hear the early work of one of the world’s most popular singers…..It’s fascinating to hear the songs closest to Terfel’s heart that helped shape his musical sensibility. His deep love of his homeland permeates the album." - Robert Reid
