Stanford

Despite reservations, Standen’s Songs of Travel merits a place in the VW discography [JQ]

by Christopher Howell

A 1950s English song recital restored; excellent remastering but stylistically uncertain [JW]

A genuine triumph – a completely convincing performance of a typically Victorian Choral Festival work [NB]

A historical release that wears its age lightly – excellent restoration and attractive singing of well-chosen repertoire [NB]

A fine performance of Stanford’s noble Requiem [JQ]

An interesting programme, impressively performed [JQ]
