Excerpt

Natalie Merchant, currently touring Europe, stopped by BBC One's The Andrew Marr Show yesterday morning to perform "Where I Go," from her new album, Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings. She is "one of the most distinctive singer songwriters of the last 30 years," says Marr. See why in the performance here. The Daily Telegraph, in its four-star review of her show at London's Royal Albert Hall last week, says, "As her spellbound audience swayed, it felt that we were in the presence of a rare breed: an artist who has never compromised, but instead evolved with integrity, thought and meaning." The Guardian says: "Merchant’s lush acoustic, orchestral set is dramatic, intimate and impressive to witness." The tour continues in Europe this week and culminates at NYC's Beacon Theatre next week.

Natalie Merchant, currently touring Europe with music from her album Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings, stopped by the BBC studios to be a guest on BBC One's The Andrew Marr Show yesterday morning. She sang "Where I Go," from the album, which features new recordings of the beloved songs of her multi-platinum solo debut album, Tigerlily, as they have evolved over two decades of live performance. Merchant is "one of the most distinctive singer songwriters of the last 30 years," says Marr. See why in the performance below.

The Daily Telegraph, in its four-star review of Merchant's sold-out show at London's Royal Albert Hall last week, says, "As her spellbound audience swayed, it felt that we were in the presence of a rare breed: an artist who has never compromised, but instead evolved with integrity, thought and meaning." The Guardian, in its four-star review, says: "Merchant’s lush acoustic, orchestral set is dramatic, intimate and impressive to witness." PopMatters adds: "a fantastic set-list made for a triumphant start to the European leg of Natalie Merchant’s 2016 Paradise Is There tour."

The tour continues with performances this week in Brussels, Manchester, and Dublin before returning home and culminating in the second of two sold-out concert at Beacon Theatre in New York City.

    Donnacha Dennehy’s Land of Winter is out now. The piece, performed by the composer's longtime collaborators Alarm Will Sound and conductor Alan Pierson, explores the subtleties of Ireland’s seasons via twelve connected sections representing the months of the year. "It is the varying quality of light that truly demarcates the seasons," Dennehy says, "from the shorter days of grey or piercing light in the winter to the warmer but mercurial light of summer days that at solstice stretch almost to midnight. I like this play between light and time, and it is the major inspiration behind the piece." You can watch a video for “July" here.
