About

“enjoyable anthology edition showing Deller at his finest. The others are good too, especially Gerald English ... warm, expressively played instruments” - Penguin Guide

“Vanguard’s reissues of Purcell, the composer most closely associated with Deller ... the purity of tone, the extraordinary resonance of lower and middle notes, the technical skill and sensitivity of his singing all remain ... Stylish playing by George Malcolm and others (including young Neville Marriner) ... celebrated not only Deller himself but his generation who did so much to bring Purcell out to reveal his genius”
- Gramophone
