"... It's tempting to name "highlights" of the album, but pretty much everything here is a highlight..."

Robert A Moore – American Record Guide – July/August 2021

Performance **** Recording ****

Daniel Jaffe – BBC Music magazine – May 2021

“Distinguished alumni of King's College, Cambridge come together on the college's own label for a lovely programme which is the epitome of 20th century English song” ****

Robert Hugill – planethugill.com – 31 March 2021

“… This irresistible compilation features nine singers and a pianist who attended and sang in King’s College in their youth. They have now come together to perform the best of British solo vocal music. The results are dazzling, an exquisitely musical emotional journey. Each of the vocalists is first class and the repertoire is enchanting. In each song, a different voice is highlighted; I particularly adored all three countertenors…”

Susan Miron - artsfuse.org – 9 April 2021

“Aficionados of the human voice will find this exquisite collection of English song particularly tempting, and, what’s more, it acts as an introduction to some unfamiliar singers along with more celebrated names. The programme, too, is exemplary and even if you already have some of this music, it is a disc worth investing in…”
