A Story Left Untold

‘A Story Left Untold’, the new album co-written with double-Grammy-winning pianist/composer, Alan Broadbent,  completes the trilogy with the globally acclaimed ‘Songbook‘ (2017) and ‘Quiet Is The Star’ (2021)

Masterfully blending the personal and political across duo, quartet, and orchestral settings, the album unfolds in two interconnected halves, where some protagonists are given a voice while others remain silent in the shadows. It explores the delicate intersection of the “cruel and kind”; those forces that draw us further from, and closer to, our shared humanity.

The title track, composed and arranged for voice and full 42-piece orchestra, displays both the staggering breadth of Alan’s talent and influences, and Georgia’s multi-dimensional poeticism and powerfully nuanced performance. 

Elsewhere, personal vignettes balance poignancy and positivity, permanence and impermanence, with the skill, depth and lightness of touch that define Georgia and Alan’s collaboration.

Trilogy co-producer Andrew Cleyndert demonstrates his impeccable musicianship throughout: crafting a remarkably seamless transition between the three settings, while also delivering exemplary bass playing.

Drummer Dave Ohm, returning from ‘Songbook’, weaves his innate musicality and dynamism into a perfectly judged performance.

Artist Simon Manfield also continues his pivotal role across Georgia and Alan’s recordings and publications, once again delivering highly expressive cover art.

At the core of this album is the kinship and searing sincerity between its leaders. As Alan explains, “Her words sound like my notes: they are meant to be sung”. Here, they are sung and played with passion and potency, fragility and finesse: two captivating storytellers united, as Georgia describes, “by the optimistic power of beauty and compassion”.

Stories told and untold: a defining chapter in this exceptional partnership.
