A most delightful classic heritage collection of 52 nursery songs and rhymes. The musical arrangements are simple, the voices clear and close - pleasant listening for both children and adults.
A rich tradition is alive in this vibrant collection. Simple arrangements combine live instruments with novel contemporary sounds. Young children are sure to enjoy this album for many years to come.
The fifty-two tracks are grouped in the following themes:
- Mother Goose
- Animals
- Nursery Characters
- Birds of a Feather
- Edible Delights
- Worldly Folk
- Lullabies & Mysteries
We selected rhymes and songs in which the traditional language and meaning is positive.
An interesting juxtaposition of voices, together with the placement of spoken rhymes between songs, makes for pleasant listening throughout the whole album.
The youthful presence of Yasmin Palmer-Coyle contrasts beautifully with the rich older voice of famous New Zealand actress Davina Whitehouse.
Bob Smith plays a bonny Daddy, alongside the nurturing voices of Radha and Andrea Sanders.
