steepholmChris Wood has a new album out, and I'd like to make two recommendations from it.
First, here's his setting of Housman's poem about Victoria's Golden Jubilee, "1887" - a work that's not as straightforwardly patriotic as may first appear. I mention it here particularly, though, because my brother worked on the setting with him, and accompanies him on the track.
Also, there's "Shallow End", which I heard him perform live a couple of years ago, and loved. It's just as good now.
