Awards and reviews
These songs or early lieder are given sympathetic and, where needed, rousing readings from James Griffett. Apart from this issue, not many are featured in the current catalogue and thus this recital is most welcome.
Griffett has a light pleasing tenor voice, here most aptly and considerately accompanied by Bradford Tracey, the one complementing the other. The fortepiano adds to the performances as it is nicely muted… it blends well
with the voice and is unlikely by its very nature to overpower the singer… The delightful performances do full justice to the music. Haydn was ever one to entrance and delight via his lighter and more intimate compositions. Here we have cases in point and in plenty.
