EVENING SONGS – DELIUS AND IRELAND **** (Naxos Classical)
This selection of some of Delius’ most beautiful songs arranged for cello and piano demonstrates the composer’s gift for melody.
His Serenade From Hassan is haunting. The cellists, who are husband and wife, explore the thoughtful elegance of John Ireland’s songs, in particular Her Song.
