Notes & Reviews:

Stone Records is delighted to announce the concluding CD in a two-disc series that comprises the first-ever complete recording of C.W. Orr's songs for voice and piano. This wonderful composer is one of the music world's best-kept secrets, with so few of his songs recorded - until now!

The Guardian, August 2012
Fans of English song should be grateful to Stone and Lepper for their efforts to make this music better known.
