Author:
Elizabethan songs, enterprisingly selected, thoughtfully programmed and skilfully varied in presentation, should be certain (one would think) to provide an hour’s delight. In fact I found they passed the time agreeably but not much more than that. This is an accomplished and tasteful group of singers and players but their performances need a touch more impulse. Perhaps the instrumental accompaniments have too moderating an effect: one misses the freedom of voice-and-lute or the expressiveness of good madrigal singing.'
