The Way Home
Frank Harrison and Brigitte Beraha
Linus Records 2018
Frank Harrison Piano
Brigitte Beraha Vocals
The Way Home is the result of a new collaboration between pianist Frank Harrison and vocalist Brigitte Beraha.
The music is melodic, romantic and understated, sometimes playful and sometimes dark but always striving for beauty. Beraha’s rich heritage is reflected in her lyrics – in English, French and Italian – and she also sings without words on three tracks. Harrison adds texture with subtle use of synthesisers and samples.
The album features nine original compositions. Harrison also reprises a theme from his 2006 debut album First Light, with a solo version of Don Sebesky’s You Can’t Go Home Again.
“A truly beautiful recording” Norma Winstone
“A beautiful partnership” John Fordham, The Guardian
