Flying Free is a classical crossover recording bringing together the angelic voice of soprano Tania de Jong with the virtuosic genius of pianist, composer and arranger Anthony Barnhill. Also appearing on the album is one of Australia’s most acclaimed violinists Zoe Black and baritone Jonathan Morton
The album includes originals Flying Free and The Everlasting Light with compositions by Barnhill and lyrics by de Jong. There are also reinventions of some gorgeous standards including Shenandoah and Danny Boy and sacred songs including two versions of Ave Maria, Panis Angelicus and the Yiddish prayer Avinu Malkeinu. The recording features beautiful arrangements of songs by Schubert, Handel, Caccini, Dvorak, Lehar, Korngold and Gershwin and folks.
There is a divine and timeless nature to these incredible works and Barnhill has created some magical re-inventions. Tania said: “In every piece we have tried to share something new. The songs are all about journeying beyond the here and now, opening your heart, finding your light, letting go, the importance of love and the reminder that there is only this present moment. I hope you find as much light, joy, hope, love and peace in this music as I do. Fly free!”
