CD Reviews

You really should hear the Songs to Poems of William Blake

Craig Matteson | Ann Arbor, MI | 07/04/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this disk to hear the settings of the Songs to Poems of William Blake. They really are quite stunning. My favorite is "The Little Black Boy", but they are all quite good.The rest of the songs are also better than I had expected and I am glad that I have this disk. I recommend it to you. I believe you would be glad to have it in your collection."
