If On A Winter’s Night… – Sting
Composer, singer, actor, activist – Sting has won universal acclaim in all these roles, but he defies easy labelling. He’s best described as an adventurer, a risk-taker. As he himself said, “I love to put myself in new situations. I’m not afraid to be a beginner”.
This time he has taken up a different route and inspiration, showcasing his vast taste in music.
This album is a collection of covers of traditional songs, lullabies and carols from the British Isles, which will feature two original compositions by Sting, “The Hounds of Winter” and “Lullaby for an Anxious Child.” Also, if you paid attention, you probably could’ve guessed the album’s non-pop lean by the fact that it’s being put out by Deutsche Grammophon, a German classical music label owned by Universal Music Group.
If on a Winter’s Night… is music for the purpose of introspection, mood setting, or direct listening. It most likely shouldn’t be considered for party or for entertainment. Like most music with depth, it requires a certain conscious presence to fully appreciate and experience the album.
if you like holiday music n carols this one’s for you!!
