'Where Baker is in a class of her own is in the melancholy accents and decisive inflections she brings to the great monologues, not to mention the after-love peacefulness of "From isle to isle chill waters whisper the hour", one of Walton's most haunting pages… [Lawrence Foster] the ruminative, the comic, and the martial aspects of the score with equal aplomb, and excels even the composer in suggesting the full-blooded passion of the interlude.' - Gramophone
