About
This fiftieth release in Hyperions glorious English Orpheus series takes us on a Shakespearean Odyssey through Titus Andronicus, Measure for Measure, Troilus and Cressida, Much Ado about Nothing, Henry VIII, Cymbeline, Loves Labours Lost, A Midsummer Nights Dream and The Tempest. Pride of place, of course, goes to Thomas Arnes immortal settings, but the disc additionally explores some remarkable songs by his predecessors and contemporaries.
