Peter Pears sings two songs by Frank Bridge

[operamutti]

Great pieces, great interpretation. I had forgotten these.

Thanks for reminding me!

Very nice to hear these songs again! I have cherished this disc for many years. Peter Pears was in his prime, and he was so lucky to work with the very best accompanist ever. One of their last discs with Schubert songs is also very dear to me. Pears' voice is no longer in top condition, but the Schubert songs still admirably well sung, with unrivalled accompaniment by Britten in e.g. 'Auf dem Wasser zu singen'. Gerald Moore once said about B's accompanying: Any pianist would go on his knees!
