Thank you Kush for introducing us to the music of Bryn Terfel. What a fantastic voice. I love Scarborough Fair as it brings back so many memories.

Thank you Kush for posting the 6 minute interview. I love Terfel's singing voice. This interview was a great way to hear his speaking voice and his thoughts at length. Superb.

You are welcome Cheshire gal and bridger15. Glad you enjoyed. I think Bryn Terfel singing an album of LC songs would be very interesting - a few with only piano accompaniment and the rest with a full orchestra. I can hear him do The Old Revolution, Bird on the Wire, Joan of Arc. The last playing both parts as he does here
