Not strictly classical - Natasha Hardy's In Too Deep
Not strictly classical, but with enough interesting inspirations and references (from Enya to the classically inspired piano accompaniment) to perhaps intrigue, though perhaps the floaty visuals are a bit much. And we might consider where such classically inspired popular artists sit in a musical spectrum, where contemporary classical music frequently bleeds over into the popular, and where the new classical uses ideas from both.
This is a new track, In too deep, from the singer/songwriter Natasha Hardy taken from her debut album which is out this summer.
If you would like to hear Natasha live, then she is performing songs from the album on Sunday 20 May 2018, at The Jazz Room, The Bulls Head, 373 Lonsdale Road, Barnes, SW13 9PY. Further information from the 7 Star Arts website.
