Their earlier Move album Tomorrow, Just You Wait and See was made in the same studio. Here childhood favourites such as The Rainbow Connection, You Are My Sunshine and Que Sera, Sera sit beside standards and Gould’s own pieces, shaped by the quiet of early parenthood.
I am delighted to share this music with you now. Home and family have been the focus of my life over the past few years, having had two babies in two years and immersing myself in motherhood.
Many of the songs you will hear on this album reflect this special time in my life. The Rainbow Connection, You Are My Sunshine, and Que Sera are songs I learnt as a child, and are now some of the songs I sing to my own babies. I hope you will enjoy our interpretations of these timeless compositions.
Reviews
The sweet innocence of some undeniable favourites such as 'The Rainbow Connection' and 'Que Sera, Sera' exhaled slowly. No nuance missed.

Performers
Composers
Ray Evans
Ray Evans was an American lyricist whose film and popular songs include Mona Lisa, Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be), the Christmas standard Silver Bells, and Tammy.
Lorenz Hart
Lorenz Hart's lyrics for Rodgers and Hart still sit at the heart of the jazz and cabaret songbook: witty, conversational, and edged with a rueful tenderness that singers and players keep returning to.
Jay Livingston
Jay Livingston (1915–2001) was an American popular-song and film composer. His Oscar-winning melodies, including Mona Lisa, Que Sera, Sera and Silver Bells, became lasting standards of mid-century Hollywood songwriting.
Johnny Mercer
Johnny Mercer's lyrics still define how jazz singers tell a story: conversational, witty and shot through with Southern colour, from torch laments to swing anthems and Hollywood standards that refuse to age.
Richard Rodgers
Richard Rodgers (1902–1979) was an American composer of musical theatre whose songs became standards of the twentieth-century stage and screen. Over five decades he wrote more than nine hundred songs and dozens of Broadway musicals.
Alan Bergman
Alan Bergman (1925–2025) was an American lyricist and songwriter. His work for film and popular song includes the standard You Must Believe in Spring.
Marilyn Bergman
Marilyn Bergman (1928–2022) was an American lyricist whose songs for film, television and the stage earned Oscars, Emmys and Grammys, and a place in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Michel Legrand
Michel Legrand (1932–2019) was a French composer, arranger, conductor, jazz pianist and singer, known for more than two hundred film and television scores and many songs that entered the standard repertoire.
Carl Sigman
Carl Sigman wrote lyrics that turned melodies into lasting standards, from big-band swing to film themes. His words for It's All in the Game and A Day in the Life of a Fool still travel easily into jazz and popular song.
Paul Williams
Paul Williams is the songwriter of The Rainbow Connection, heard on a Move programme of favourite songs for voice and piano.

Crossing Paths
Ensemble Liaison and the Tony Gould Trio take turns across the programme: each piece is heard first in a scored reading, then in an improvised jazz response that opens the same melodic and harmonic material to fresh colour.
Where have you been all these years?
Claire Patti (vocal and harp), Louise Godwin (cello) and Tony Gould (piano) join in a warm tribute to musical friendship, bringing fresh interpretive colour to traditional songs they love.
