Songs by Eric Coates
In songs which seem perilously sentimental to the modern ear…Rudge is deft at dialing back the whimsy, and distilling genuine emotion…Glynn’s fluid accompaniment is a model of supportive sensitivity.

About

Fresh from rave reviews for The Hills of Dreamland (SOMMCD 271-2), a ravishing collection of Elgar’s orchestral songs, Kathryn Rudge returns with a delectable recital of era-defining songs by the composer of the stirring The Dam Busters March, exuberant Knightsbridge march and the timeless By the Sleepy Lagoon, familiar to radio audiences around the world as the theme to BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs since 1942.
