The St Michael's Folk Choir has released their latest album, Into Your Hands, and it's an absolute delight for anyone who loves traditional folk music. The album features a collection of original songs and covers that showcase the choir's exceptional talent and passion for music.
The album opens with the title track, "Into Your Hands," a beautiful and moving song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The choir's harmonies are tight and precise, and the instrumentation is perfectly balanced, creating a rich and warm sound that's perfect for folk music.
Throughout the album, the choir explores a range of themes and emotions, from the joyful "Sing Alleluia" to the contemplative "Be Still My Soul." The arrangements are varied and interesting, with some songs featuring simple acoustic guitar accompaniment, while others are more complex and layered.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Lord is My Shepherd," a classic hymn that the choir has given a fresh and modern twist. The arrangement is stripped back and minimal, allowing the choir's voices to shine through and convey the song's message of comfort and hope.
