Description
Fourteen of the songs on this major release are recorded for the first time. The inspiration for the Holy Sonnets was a harrowing trip paid by Britten and Yehudi Menuhin to Belsen at the end of the war, while the songs from the collection ‘The Red Cockatoo and other songs’ respond to a wide variety of more homely influences.
