Songs of Earth and Sky - Bill Douglas

On Songs of Earth & Sky, BILL DOUGLAS follows the musical path that he pioneered on his superb Deep Peace.

Working once again with the ARS NOVA SINGERS, Douglas creates choral settings for the most beloved poems from the English Classical poetic tradition. "If you liked the original, you're going to love the sequel." While it's rare that this sentiment is expressed about a favorite book or movie, it's a safe bet that fans of last year's Deep Peace will be enthralled by BILL DOUGLAS' new album Songs of Earth and Sky. Returning for this release are the ARS NOVA SINGERS, some of the world's greatest poets, intricate, lovely, and spirited melodies, and superb ensemble playing. What's added is an air of earthiness and celebration to complement the depth of thought and feeling inherent in the immortal words of the poets
