This is a beautiful CD and begins with the gentle, yet powerful Requiem, Op. 48. However, the second track, which is just the baritone singing, is extremely quiet. I had to turn the volume right up. On track 3, when the rest of the chorus come in, the volume is okay again. By track 6 the music is too loud. The dynamics need sorting out. Despite this, the music is achingly beautiful and expertly performed. The Elegie, Op. 24 is matchless. And Apres un Reve, Op. 7 no. 1, is heartrending. Dolly, Op. 56 is very elegant. It sounds slightly English - Elgar-like.
