Notes & Reviews:

"This reissue pairs two Dame Janet projects from different decades: 1975 recordings of Scottish songs, all arranged by Haydn and Beethoven, and a 1967 session with songs by Dowland, Purcell, and other composers spanning the 16th through 18th centuries... Her voice floods these songs with warmth, and her technical skills, including crystalline enunciation, are dazzling." -Classics Today (10/7)
