Our Take

Get ready to have your eardrums tickled and your funny bone shaken with the latest collaboration from Mhairi Lawson, Michael Mofidan, Nicky Spence, and Iain Burnside. Erik Chisholm: Songs in British English is a delightful romp through the world of classical music with a modern twist.

Lawson's vocals are as smooth as butter, gliding effortlessly over Mofidan's intricate piano accompaniments. Spence's powerful tenor voice adds a new layer of depth to Chisholm's intricate compositions, while Burnside's skillful mastery of the keys ties the whole package together.

The songs themselves are a mixture of beauty and complexity, with lyrical themes ranging from love and loss to the joys of nature and the passage of time. Chisholm's masterful compositions are brought to life by this talented quartet, creating a dynamic and engaging listening experience.

Tracks like "The Dark Island" and "The Shepherd's Song" showcase the group's ability to blend traditional British folk influences with classical sensibilities, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. Throw in a touch of humor and whimsy, and you've got an album that is sure to delight music lovers of all stripes.
