Notes and Reviews

Tense and enthusiastic musicality inform every performance in this engaging program of mostly unfamiliar music.

"This is a wholly delightful record. The Lincoln Center Chamber Music Society sometimes invites distinguished singers to join the instrumentalists in an evening at Alice Tully Hall, and this disc is the result of one such concert with two of America's brightest singing talents. Intense and enthusiastic musicality inform everything they do here, and they show their catholicity of taste in a wide-ranging programme of mostly unfamiliar music." -- Gramophone [2/1976]
