He comes with western winds With evening's wandering airs With that clear dusk of heaven That brings the thickest stars Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn

The night is darkening round me, The wild winds coldly blow; But a tyrant spell has bound me, And I cannot, cannot go Clouds beyond clouds above me, Wastes beyond wastes below; But nothing drear can move me, I will not, cannot go

Here with my knee upon thy stone I bid adieu to feelings gone I leave with thee my tears and pain And rush into the world again Oh come again what chains withhold The steps that used so fleet to be Come leave thy dwelling dark and cold Once more visit me Was it with the fields of green Blowing flower and budding tree With summer heaven serene That thou didst visit me No 'twas not the flowery plain No 'twas not the fragrant air Summer skies will comes again But thou will not be there

He comes with western winds With evening's wandering airs With that clear dusk of heaven That brings the thickest stars Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn Winds take a pensive tone Stars a tender fire Visions rise and change That kill with desire Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn to fly Broken bird you burn

about

"Two onstage musicians lend considerable heft to plaintive, folk-infused ballads (featuring haunting vocals with lines drawn from Bronte's poetry) to floor-shakingly stirring, primal walls of sounds." - The Stage ****

"...as musicians Becky Wilkie and Sophie Galpin whipping up emotion playing an original and often haunting score from Alexandra Faye Braithwaite." - Quays Life ****

Due to the unfortunate outbreak of coronavirus, all proceeds from the sale of the Wuthering Heights soundtrack will be donated to the Royal Exchange Theatre to aid its re-opening in Autumn 2020. The full album is available for £5, but any further donations to the theatre would be very much welcomed and appreciated.

Other ways to support the theatre during this time include purchasing membership - for more information please click here: www.royalexchange.co.uk/membership-levels

A massive thankyou to Sorcha Steele, Sam Leahy and everyone in the sound department at The Royal Exchange for their hard work.
