Bryn Terfel's Simple Things

The Anchoress's ravings about the music of Bryn Terfel finally convinced me to pick one of his CD's as my $5.99 monthly selection from Your Music. (Your Music's sound clips usually sound less than stellar on my computer so I didn't even try to listen before purchase, but I did watch some clips on You Tube that featured him singing and read some reviews.)

After slightly more than one listen, I'll say that I like the album and Terfel's singing -- although I wouldn't say that as I am as enthusiastic as The Anchoress. I picked this album because I'm not generally a huge fan of opera, and I thought this CD, with a lot of the songs in English and familiar to me, would be a nice way to get to know his voice. Only time will tell if the album becomes an enduring favorite.

(This is my first try at posting links on the blog. I hope it works!)

Update: It didn't work, so I'm trying again.
