CD Reviews

Facade - a unique experience!
John N. Taylor | Palm Desert, CA, USA | 04/03/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Walton (and Sitwell's) Facade is a delightful entertainment and nowhere better than here with all the extra poems that Walton set.

If you have never heard the piece before - it takes a little effort - but that is well worth the time.

The settings are witty and apposite. Stilgoe and Bron are the perfect pair to recite - I suspect few of the listeners in the US will have heard of them - except Stilgoe has written lyrics for Lloyd Webber.

I encourage you to try this CD - I am sure you will enjoy it.
