| Anyone with an ear for Vaughan Williams, Delius or Britten can’t fail to respond… | ||
| —The Independent |
| Admiration for this tuneful and poetry-centred vocal music can only be increased by hearing this disc. Lovers of English song must have this strong Blyton cross-section. Certainly the song-cycles here should be part of their active listening experience. | ||
