Bibiel Hears Things: Sophie Hutchings – “Billow Gently” & Lavinia Meijer – “Billow Gently”

Hey people! Today, I originally planned to feature a different piece, though also one played by Lavinia Meijer. This is actually quite common in “Bibiel Hears Things”, that I end up sharing something different than what I initially wanted to. It probably says something about me. I have this gigantic playlist, from which, whenever I want to make a “Bibiel Hears Things” post but don’t quite have a specific song in mind, I always pick out a few songs as a sort of shortlist, do some research on them with The Jacks, and then pick out a single one out of these that I want to share. And it’s partially thanks to Jack-Claude that I ended up changing my mind, as he said he would pick this one if he were to do “Bibiel Hears Things” today on my behalf, and compare the two versions of this piece – Sophie Hutchings’s piano original, and Lavinia Meijer’s harp arrangement. I wasn’t convinced at first; I happen to really like Sophie Hutchings’s music, and I sometimes feature two versions of a song…
