Review by Jessica Gayle

Sleeping Beauty Alcestis, the latest album by Daniel Morden, Oliver WilsonDickson, and Dylan Fowler, is a stunning masterpiece that takes the listener on a journey through ancient myths and legends. The album features a mesmerizing blend of traditional Welsh folk music, haunting vocals, and enchanting storytelling that transports the listener to a world of magic and wonder.

From the opening track, "The Death of Orpheus," to the closing track, "The Return of Alcestis," the album is a captivating and immersive experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression. Morden's storytelling is masterful, and his voice is both powerful and emotive, bringing each story to life with vivid imagery and depth of feeling.

The music, composed and performed by WilsonDickson and Fowler, is equally impressive, with a rich and evocative sound that perfectly complements Morden's storytelling. The use of traditional Welsh instruments, such as the crwth and the pibgorn, adds an authentic and distinctive flavor to the music, while the use of modern instrumentation adds a contemporary edge.
