July/August 2015
masterclass in delicate phrasing, elegant lines, exemplary Italian and effortless madrigalian expression with standards of intonation to languish after – delizioso.
August 2015
The King's Singers bring a sense of perfect social grace and urbanity to this music…it is hard to imagine a group with greater potential to do justice to this music of love and mythology than they.

The King’s Singers capture the listener's interest in almost all of them. In fact in this recording some madrigals have come alive for me more than before. I was much struck this time by the beauty, calm and word-painting of Cavaccio’s Giunta qui Dori.
