Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
As one of the UK's leading opera singers, bass-baritone Bryn Terfel is known and universally admired for his recordings and live performances. He has, however, taken time out to head back to Wales and record a disc of songs and hymns from his homeland. To quote "Cymru Fach", "There's a place for the whole of her in my heart, dearest Wales. Each mountain, each valley, each river, dearest Wales. 'Though I travel far from her hilltops, far from her resounding waterfalls, within minutes I will dream my way back from afar to that sanctuary of my childhood: dearest Wales". The resulting CD comprises 21 tracks, from the rousing and joyous "Cwm Rhondda" to the poignant and introspective "My Little Welsh Home". Joined by the massed forces of the Black Mountain Chorus, Risca Male Choir and the Orchestra of Welsh National Opera, Terfel is the perfect ambassador for this music, while Chris Hazell should be commended for his imaginative orchestrations of 17 of the tracks. The sleeve notes for We'll Keep a Welcome cite the Welsh proverb "To be born Welsh is to be born with music in your blood and poetry in your soul". Terfel was born with music, poetry and a little bit of magic, all of which he brings to this CD. Whether or not you are Welsh, this is one disc sure to send tingles up and down your spine. --Rebecca Agnew
Chronique amazon.fr
Avec sa carrure de rugbyman et son allure de grand gaillard, Bryn Terfel est l'un des plus grands chanteurs de la nouvelle génération. Dans ce récital, il nous emmène à la découverte de la musique folklorique de son pays natal, le pays de Galles. Loin des salles d'opéra, Bryn Terfel nous enthousiasme. Sa technique lui permet d'ennoblir ces partitions populaires qui ne sont pas dénuées de qualités musicales. --Pierre Massé

Nostalgia for Wales,
By A Customer
This review is from: We Ll Keep A Welcome (Audio CD)
Bryn Terfel, with his magnificent baritone, sings a wonderful selection of songs that makes me wish that I was Welsh. My husband was born in Wales and this is a wonderful way for our children to know more of their heritage by listening to the Welsh language as it is sung and following the words in Welsh, then reading the translation. This CD is definitely a favorite.

A beautiful album...,
By Rachel Howard (ocklawaha, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: We Ll Keep A Welcome (Audio CD)
Do you like the bass-baritone voice? Do you like Welsh songs? Then stop right here and buy this CD. Terfel is by turns rousing, then tender and mellow, with a large warm voice and the right coloration for each song. By the way, if you like Men of Harlech, this is an excellent version.
