Brahms & Hough: Other love songs

What's your favourite love song? Fresh from their Gramophone Editor's Choice debut disc, Britain's most exciting young sextet returns with an album that's bursting with passion, rapture and the sheer magic and madness of falling in love. The Prince Consort presents a dazzling new collection of contemporary love songs by hugely popular pianist and composer Stephen Hough. They also bring new life to the classic Liebeslieder Walzer by Brahms. Fall in love all over again with the help of The Prince Consort's exquisitely seductive young voices and special guest appearances by Stephen Hough and Philip Fowke joining Alisdair Hogarth at the piano.

A 24-bit 192 kHz studio master for this album is available from the Linn Records website.
