Sleep, and I’ll be still as another sleeper
holding you in my arms,
glad that you lie so near at last.
This sheltering midnight is our meeting place,
no passion or despair or hope divide me from your side.
I shall remember firelight on your sleeping face,
I shall remember shadows growing deeper
as the fire fell to ashes and the minutes passed.

This is really, really stunning.

You simply must fall in love instantly with this countervoice ánd the sober way he performs ánd his own accompaniment. It all comes so easy, so natural. Some nowadays countertenors make quite a theatre to impress, but Andrew doesn't need that to be recognized and admired. And such a beautiful song. Only full marks. Thank you from overseas.

As a former cathedral chorister and professional musician I consider you to have one of the most superbly modulated voices I have heard, with musicianship to match. With whom did you study?
Thank-you.
