Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
It is rare that something this special comes along. Sara is a young Welsh singer in her early twenties, yet her first collection "Let Me Fly" shows great maturity. Her voice is clear, strong and, as other reviewers have said, beautiful and her performance is assured. The recording is also first class.
Many of the arrangements have a distinctly Celtic sound to them, especially at the beginning often swelling to more orchestrated backing in choruses or climaxes.
The title track 'Let Me Fly', chosen for the Ryder Cup, is suitably evocative. But probably the three most stunning tracks are: 'Frozen', a song written by Madonna, with its haunting sound and powerful lyrics; 'Angel', full of sincerity and emotion with powerful poetry in the lyrics and 'Chasing Cars' for the images it creates. The nostalgically beautiful "Bedshaped" (about one person who has outgrown a relationship and the other who would like it to continue) has a lovely cello and piano introduction.
The frequently covered 'Time After Time' stands comparison with the best and although I feel 'Fields of Gold' is a little too fast in tempo, it has grown on me and is only a minor criticism in what I consider to be a masterpiece of a CD.
I recommend it to you unreservedly and also buy it for someone special as a gift, it will be much appreciated.

A wonderful voice, strong in the Welsh spirit and tradition. An optimum choice of pieces for a debut CD.
The recording is of good quality, and the orchestra uplifted by the voice.
An excellent purchase and one that will be played often. We are waiting for disc#2.

Let Me Fly is a fantastic rousting anthem for the Ryder Cup, even for those of us who are not golf fanatics. Sara Kempe's voice gives me goosebumps - just sensational!Let Me Fly

Let me Fly
This CD arrived in good time and in perfect condition. I have not heard Sara Kempe before, so for me this was a sort of experiment with the help of the short video clip on Amazon. Read more
