With All My Heart CD Released

Simon Gilbert with his new album

 

Two years in the making, the album ‘With All My Heart’ was completed in December of 2018 and is now available to buy.

Simon Gilbert, now in his early eighties, set about putting together the album two years ago. His aim was to not only retain the singing voice that he had attained in his earlier years but, in fact, to improve on it as part of producing an album of classical songs that he loved.

The With All My Heart album is the culmination of two years work, during which time Simon has worked tirelessly to hone his voice and produce a compilation of beautiful English, French and Italian songs. Simon was accompanied in the studio by Christopher Gould on piano for a number of the tracks. The compilation also includes some recordings from earlier years which have orchestral accompaniment.
