Noel Coward - His HMV Recordings

描述

The six multi-talented brothers and sisters who make up the Annie Moses Band are on home ground for The Art of the Love Song, the lush, romantic album that follows their first Warner Classics release, American Rhapsody. Available as a CD, DVD or Blu-ray, it was recorded live in July 2015 at the legendary Grand Ole Opry House in their hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. Nashville, officially designated the USA’s ‘Music City’, reigns supreme in country music, but the Annie Moses Band specialises in a particular brand of artistic fusion. They bring together a rich variety of musical styles – popular and classical – to create something fresh, distinctive and captivating. In the words of the band’s sweet-voiced lead singer and violinist, Annie Wolaver Dupre, The Art of the Love Song “honours the miracle of love”. She quotes Nat King Cole’s haunting Nature Boy: “The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return." The velvet-voiced Cole is a special point of reference on the album, which also offers romantic numbers made famous by a diverse collection of great names – among them Barbra Streisand, The Beatles, Art Garfunkel, Joe Cocker and Perry Como. The members of the Annie Moses Band have reinterpreted a whole treasury of classic love songs for the album: it has 14 tracks, with two bonus tracks on the CD, and a bonus track and interview footage on the DVD and Blu-ray.
