REVIEWS

Link to Hubert Culot's MusicWeb review | Graham Bruce's MusicWeb review | John France's MusicWeb review

"He writes with a sure touch: a feeling for the poems, and a well defined musical idea as the starting-point for his settings...Both singers deserve gratitude, with William Berger showing once again that he is one of the best of our younger baritones. John Talbot is the excellent pianist, catching the mood of each song and sensitive to every development."
(John Steane Gramophone)

"I hope that these songs find a constituency both within and beyond these shores...Performances are admirable."
(Piers Burton Page International Record Review)
