Reviews

‘This is a very charming record’ (Gramophone)

‘A delightful, imaginatively wide-ranging anthology. A most enjoyable entertainment as well as a true voyage of discovery’ (Hi-Fi News)

‘I felt as if I was discovering these songs for the first time’ (Soundscapes, Australia)
This Hindemith song, written in 1944, sees the composer conveying love’s callings and ‘Echo’s’ tender replies through ravishing canonic effects.
