Description
Florence & The Machine; Jules Buckley & His Orchestra - Symphony Of Lungs (BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall) (2xLP Vinyl)
Florence + The Machine joins Jules Buckley and his orchestra for a 15 year anniversary celebration of her seminal debut album Lungs live at the Royal Albert Hall.
The show received 5-star reviews across the board, praising the new arrangements and Florence Welch's commanding stage presence. "When I first heard Jules's orchestration, I cried," Welch told the audience. "This album is about feeling and I never thought anyone could add more feeling. But Jules did."
In a statement, Welch shared, "I always thought maybe I would give my first album a long title. Under Heaven Over Hell ('uh oh' for short) was one idea. But, when I thought of 'Lungs', I knew it had to be that. This album is truly an exhalation and a gasp – a cacophony of ideas and influences. For things to get so big so fast on a debut album is both an unknowable blessing and a curse. You never know if the record (or the person) will survive it."
"To be able to go back to it, 15 years and five albums later, and have it still be so loved is the most extraordinary thing. Re-imagining it with Jules Buckley and his Orchestra was an act of enormous catharsis."
