This is an excellent CD. Those that have heard Nigel Hess's music will know what to expect - creative, programmatic music that is beautifully orchestrated. For those that have not heard Hess before you are in for a real treat. There is plenty of variety - some orchestral, some vocal, some period pieces, some contemporary. My personal favourite is the fantasia on Christmas Carols - not the usual hardy perennials, but music from the time of Dickens! Just fabulous.

I loved Hess's score for 'Ladies in Lavender', and this cd is just as beautiful. Perhaps the most sublime track is 'The Winter's Tale', but there are so many wonderful moods here that you can listen again and again. Shakespeare was obviously an amazing inspiration!!

This is a lovely CD of musical scores written for theatre productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company----words of songs written by Shakespeare, and put to music by Nigel Hess---
Hess is a composer who needs to be heard more---he is easily listened to, with melodies that last in the mind long after the song is finished!
