Mar 27, 2018The bleak landscape around Dungeness can provoke contrasting responses, and both the sense of malevolence (it’s the site of a nuclear power station) and stark beauty are well reflected on this masterly recording.

MojoMar 20, 2018Another star turn for soprano Lavinia Blackwall. [May 2018, p.98]
