Background: 'Barber’s songs are an almost autobiographical strand of his output and this exemplary disc includes some that had never been publicly performed before.'

'The presence of John Browning at the piano is particularly significant, as Barber wrote his Piano Concerto for him; he remains a near-perfect advocate for this music, while Studer and Hampson are contrasting but equally sympathetic interpreters.' Gramophone
