Description
With nearly 30 items under his belt for Deutsche Grammophon, Bryn Terfel - the world's greatest bass-baritone and recent Grammy-award winner - is an obvious choice for inclusion in our classy Portrait of the Artist series.
We supplied a framework, and Bryn filled out the details - it's his personal selection of his favourite tracks plus a couple of exclusive first-time release bonus tracks: the 11-year-old Bryn singing two charming Welsh folksongs. Here he is, in all his larger-than-life glory: the supreme purveyer of ballads and sacred songs, the lieder recitalist (in German and English), and the master of the operatic arts - whether from Mozart, Wagner, Verdi or Handel - and not forgetting Gilbert and Sullivan!
Framed by two versions of Amazing Grace (the second of which is rare solo version with jazz guitarist Martin Taylor) , the double-CD set doesn't separate popular or classical music. The result reveals the man and singer in all his facets, and raises the question: How does he do it? How does he encompass so many styles so convincingly? At the end of the day, what emerges with unbelievable clarity is the sincerity of his approach to his art.
