Alfie

U.S. edition of this 2011 release from the British tenor including different tracks. Alfie presents a collection of the most beautiful and timeless songs, sung just the way you want to hear them. It is hard not to get a lump in your throat with his delivery of such romantic classics as the forever popular ‘When I Fall In Love’, Leonard Bernstein’s impassioned ‘Maria’ from West Side Story and Ewan MacColl’s heartfelt ‘The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face’. Features a duet with Robert Plant on Tim Buckley’s ‘Song To The Siren’. Having been called “Boe, the Bad Boy of Opera”, it is entirely fitting that Alfie should welcome Plant onto his new record, and, somewhat surprisingly, their voices blend beautifully against the delicate orchestration.
