Charles Wood: Songs for Voice and Piano

Secure in his reputation as a mainstay of Anglican church music, Charles Wood reveals a deeper, more versatile talent in his secular songs. Drawing on rich literary in uences – from Christina Rossetti to Walt Whitman – as well as a profound interest in the Irish cultural revival, and balancing delicate lyricism with rich harmonic textures, Wood conjures an intricate landscape of emotional and intellectual depth. For Carolyn Dobbin’s third album on Delphian, she is joined by masters of British song Roderick Williams and Iain Burnside in heartfelt performances that give vivid life to these evocative works.
