Catherine Bott (soprano) & Michael George (baritone) New London Consort, Philip Pickett Comprising over two hundred pieces, the subject matter is hugely varied, from love songs, drinking and gambling songs, to moralising songs and religious plays. “Excellent singing from Catherine Bott and Michael George, and sensitive playing from the instrumentalists under Pickett. The engineering is excellent. This makes a clear first choice, given the clarity and warmth of the sound.”
*** Penguin Guide to Compact Discs “The 'revived' L'Oiseau-Lyre's repertoire choices are arguable: Pickett's overscored, four-square medievalism needs reissue less than long-lost albums by Dart, McCarthy, Leppart, Colin Davies and Rooley; still, it’s a start.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2008 **** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
