Never one to shy away from trying something new, on this, her 12th album and follow-up to 2009's holiday effort Midwinter Graces, the flame-haired songstress takes inspiration from classical music to create a "21st century song cycle." Released on world-renowned German classical label Deutsche Grammophon, it sees her return to the stripped-back acoustic sound of her early career, featuring chamber instrumentation such as strings and woodwinds as she tells the story of a woman who "reinvents herself... [out of] the dying embers of a relationship."
