Weep mo more my wearied eyes. Neither sighs nor tears. Stay silly heart. Hero's complaint to Leander. Come, thou glorious object of my sight. Amorosa pargoletta. Qual musico gentil. Do not expect to hear. Fire, fire. Mark how blushful morn. No more shall meads be deck'd with flowers. Like hermit poor.
"Agnew has great lyrical gifts in this repertory and, accompanied by the colourful Italian-style theorbo of Wilson, his performance here amounts to an important and often revelatory release. Given in memory of Bob Spencer, this recording is a fitting dedication."
(Gramophone, July 1999)
"The composer himself could not have imagined such kaleidoscopic and sympathetic performances as Paul Agnew and Christopher Wilson deliver here."
(Jonathan Freeman-Attwood for Gramophone)
