Bryn Terfel’s new album Sea Songs presents a rich and diverse repertory of traditional music with sea shanties, spirited sailor songs and maritime folk tunes in brand new arrangements. Featuring guest stars Sting, Sir Simon Keenlyside, Fisherman’s Friends and Calan.

Tracks include shanty classics ‘The Wellerman’, ‘Santiana’ and ‘Drunken Sailor’, plus Bahamian sea song ‘Sloop John B’, Welsh folk classic ‘Ar lan y môr (By the Sea)’, ‘The Green Willow Tree’ and, of course, a suitably rousing rendition of ‘The Irish Rover’. Featuring songs originating in Wales, England, Ireland, Shetland, Brittany and far beyond.
