Tichounko This is a work of art and love. Fragile, inspiring, nostalgic (and sometimes longing & Oldfield-esque) and oh so well executed and recorded! Listen to Philippa’s beautiful guitar playing and Allister’s tasteful coloring and you’ll know it’s true.

It’s hard to pick a fav because when one listens to Lislehurst, Again it’s that track, when to Sonnet, it’s Sonnet with that glorious chord change, etc., etc.

It deserves infinite love, listens and fans so if you read this, please listen to the album.

about

This is acoustic guitarist and acclaimed children's author Philippa Dowding and multi-instrumentalist Allister Thompson's fourth collaboration, based on Philippa's fingerstyle compositions.

Several pieces were played on a smaller guitar than in the past, a Taylor Grand Touring 3/4 guitar, a lovely, soft, gentle sound, a new recording instrument for Philippa.

Allister dedicates his electric guitar playing on this album to Daniel Fichelscher
