Symphony by Sarah Brightman

Symphony by Sarah Brightman

Symphony is Sarah Brightman's release from 2008, a crossover of pop and the classical voice. It runs to 54 minutes across 13 tracks on Manhattan Records. I found it some years after it appeared and was glad I did.

Why listen?

The voice is the centre, clear and unhurried over lush arrangements. The songs move between pop and the classical line with ease. It is grand without losing its warmth.

Favourite song: Canto della Terra

A grand operatic duet with Andrea Bocelli backed by the London Symphony Orchestra that anchors the album's gothic, cinematic atmosphere.

Guarda questa terra che
Che gira insieme a noi
Anche quando è buio
Guarda questa terra che
Che gira anche per noi
A darci un po' di sole

Key takeaway

Symphony is a rewarding listen. Worth seeking out.
