The rest of the programme is also enjoyable and demonstrates the skill and interpretative range of the singer as well as that of the clarinettist and her instrumental colleagues. The recording, made in the ample acoustic of St George's, Brandon Hill, Bristol, is well enough balanced but short of colour and presence, and so does not do full justice to the tone of the singer and instrumentalists. None the less, this is a well-chosen programme and deserves to attract collectors interested in this repertory.'
