‘Impeccable artistry in the songs and eloquence in the guitar solos.’
Gramophone – Critics Choice

‘This is rather special: one of the finest British tenors plus a guitarist who can obtain such a range of colour and expression from his instrument that 74 minutes doesn’t seem a second too long. The performances are outstanding. Superb recordings too: intimate without ever feeling too close and finely balanced.’
BBC Music Magazine Editors Choice five stars

Contains the premiere recordings of Nicholas Maw’s Six Interiors and Music of Memory.
