Reviews
“Scotting and Stubbs have not given way to the temptation to choose well known baroque songs – Dowland’s Time stands still is the only real “hit”, in company with some Purcell – but have instead explored fairly untrodden paths…. These [an aria from the opera L’Orontea and Luci belle from La Cleopatra], as well as the hitherto unmentioned songs, are well worth a listen, considering how well Scotting and Stubbs perform them…”
