	…intelligent and insightful interpretations of Lorna Windsor and William Hancox … Throughout the disc, the accompaniment by William Hancox is perfectly judged and the recording quality is excellent.

	This CD of English songs contains a pot-pourri of excellence in a genre that has gone slightly out of fashion
