“[Hawnt's] diction is amazingly clear, aided by immaculate sound quality, and her understanding and interpretation of texts are excellent throughout… John Danyel was one of [Dowland's] most interesting and talented contemporaries and his musical love letters to Mistress Anne Greene are well worth listening to.”
