Coote / Johnson- Power of Love (CD)
Alice Coote, one of the most distinctive mezzo-sopranos of today, makes her recital debut on Hyperion with pianist Graham Johnson, a stalwart of the label and tireless explorer of vocal repertoire. The Power of Love creates what Johnson describes as, "a pageant of English song and poetry," covering half a century of song and surveying not just human love but love of nature.
