  • Description

    Sarah Class' 2020 album 'Natural High' is a joyful and reverential tribute to the powerful magic of nature and miracle of life. There are many layers to the natural world. Those we perceive with human eyes to be beautiful or awe inspiring, or intrinsically feel we need to protect or even be fearful of, are perhaps only touching the surface of its extraordinary qualities. Nature is also working behind the scenes affecting us on an entirely different plane.

    The inspiration for Natural High is drawn in part from Sarah's belief that behind and beyond the apparent beauty, diversity, and physical realness of all aspects of nature there is a powerful spiritual vibration existing in multi layers in our physical world. It is this version of Nature - the heavenly imprint of its physical manifestation, which is "channelled" into the music of 'Natural High.'

    Sarah Class - composer, arranger, piano, vocals plus Christophe Luciani - solo violin, Leah Eger - piano, Aliki Chrysochou, Eimear Quinn, Isaac Waddington - vocals, Jerry Grozier Cole - guitars, The Stevie Black Ensemble, Sinfonia Nord Iceland.

    "Class's talent for affecting melody is proven in commissions for the World Land Trust and HRH the Prince of Wales's 'Terra Carta' project. From inspiring orchestral anthems to soulful solo piano, via a clutch of beautiful songs, this is a vivid and memorable collection." - Michael Beek, BBC Music Magazine

    Sarah Class is an award-winning composer and singer-songwriter, writing scores for film and television, including the six-part series 'BBC Africa'narrated by Sir David Attenborough, producing innovative and emotive music of the highest quality.

    Sarah was one of 12 composers chosen by His Majesty King Charles to write a special piece of music for The Coronation. The chosen piece was Sacred Fire, composed and arranged by Sarah with lyrics by Grahame Davies and performed by South African Soprano Pretty Yende & the Coronation Orchestra.

    In 2020 Sarah made the PRS top 100 most influential female songwriters and composers in PRS' Women Changing Music Top 100 Chart.
