"... the surface is smooth, the instruments are no longer sour, the voice takes its place naturally. Nimbus have some splendid, little-known, song songs, Sibelius's Black roses and Sigh, sedges, sigh being particularly expressive. There is also a good note by Nigel Douglas who remarks "he always sounds to me most marvellously himself, as if some paper-thin layer of inhibition has been removed" when singing in Swedish: which is another point (and a good one) in favour of the Nimbus ..."
