About
The album was recorded in 2006 and 2008 by harpist Helen Webby and soprano Pepe Becker at the Chapel of St John of God, Halswell, Christchurch.
It includes pieces by John Lambert, Maurice Ravel, Gabriel Faure, Philip Cannon, Robert Schumann, Gareth Farr, Helen Bowater, Benjamin Britten and Andre Caplet.
"When we were sorting through repertoire to perform in 2005, it soon became clear that certain themes were emerging in the subject matter of the works we chose. Most of the songs seemed to be about birth/youth, marriage/love or death/loss, and also the various relationships between human nature and nature itself". (From the liner notes).
