Our Take

Ah, THEA KINGCLIFFORD BENSON, the sultan of the clarinet, the maestro of English music! This album is a delightful romp through the rolling hills and quaint villages of the British countryside, all brought to life through the soulful melodies of the clarinet.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world of tea parties, rainy days, and stiff upper lips. Each note played by THEA KINGCLIFFORD BENSON is like a gentle caress on the cheek, a whisper in the ear, a nod to the great composers of yore.

The album opens with "A Day in the Life of a Crumpet," a jaunty tune that sets the tone for what's to come. As you listen, you can almost smell the freshly cut grass, taste the scones with jam and cream, and hear the distant sound of bells chiming in the distance.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. Tracks like "Gloomy Sunday in Grimsby" and "The Soggy Bottom Boys" bring a darker edge to the proceedings, reminding us that even in the most idyllic of settings, there is still room for melancholy.

Overall, THEA KINGCLIFFORD BENSON's "English Music For Clarinet" is a delightful album that will transport you to a world of tweed jackets, cucumber sandwiches, and polite conversation. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let the music wash over you like a gentle English rain. Cheers!
