Description
Charlotte Church is a smashing young girl, no doubt about it. On stage and TV she is exuberant, and has moved a whole generation of grandmothers to tears. There is something very endearing about a pure young voice, its owner still relatively unscathed by the sorrows of this world, wholeheartedly delivering a sonorous message of peace and goodwill.
Charlotte Church is a smashing young girl, no doubt about it. On stage and TV she is exuberant, and has moved a whole generation of grandmothers to tears. There is something very endearing about a pure young voice, its owner still relatively unscathed by the sorrows of this world, wholeheartedly delivering a sonorous message of peace and goodwill. But to be quite honest, Church's voice isn't that remarkable, even for her age. And compared to the sky-high level some instrumentalists reach at a similar age, Charlotte's achievements are not outstanding. Musically she depends on meticulous coaching from Sian Edwards, and voice production seems to be the main focus when she sings. It is the combination of the freshness of her youth and the old familiarity of the songs that makes her so embraceable. This inventory of classic hits, invariably Christmas shopping material, is inoffensively orchestrated for further "angelic effect". There's noticeably more depth and phrasing in the numbers accompanied by harp only and some imaginative mixing has taken place to help the general balance. --Yngvil V.G.
