About the event
The event will feature music from the album, described as a collection of unique interpretations of folk songs. Charlotte loves old English, Scottish, Irish and Welsh folk songs and it’s been a long-held dream of hers to make a recording of some favourites. David has always loved ‘Wouldn’t It Be Lovely’ and considered it a folk song. He felt the film version did not capture the beauty of its melody and message, and suggested he re-arrange it for their project. She loved it!
Wycliffe Hall has set itself the modest task of fostering a New Renaissance of Christian scholarship, leadership and culture. As a key component of this vision, an innovative new project starting in autumn 2025 will help us to equip the Church to engage intelligently, creatively, winsomely, humbly with our society again, and to offer it a better song to sing. We will provide a unique formation experience to cultivate theological depth, artistic excellence, and multi-dimensional diversity in congregational music- and worship-leaders.
