Sonnet 'When most I wink' [2'42]
If I could choose [2'03]
The primrose Ask me why I send you here [1'55]
A dirge Rough wind, that moanest loud [1'06]
The Devon maid Where be you going, you Devon maid? [1'28]
Dawn and evening Dawn awaking hears my calling [2'03]
Where'er my bitter teardrops fall [1'39]
E'en as a lovely flower [3'15]
Blow, blow, thou winter wind [1'51]
Go not, happy day [1'12]
Night lies on the silent highways [2'41]
A dead violet The odour from the flower is gone [3'01]
Cradle song What does little birdie say? [1'53]
Lean close thy cheek [2'09]
Fair daffodils [2'31]
Adoration Asleep! O sleep a little while, white pearl! [2'46]
So perverse All women born are so perverse [1'32]
Tears, idle tears [5'29]
The violets blue [1'50]
Come to me in my dreams [3'35]
My pent-up tears oppress my brain [2'34]
Music, when soft voices die [2'22]
Far, far from each other [3'24]
Where is it that our soul doth go? One thing I'd know [3'42]
All things that we clasp and cherish [1'38]
Love is a rose [1'58]
Dear, when I look into thine eyes [2'17]
Isobel What is the sorrow of the wind, Isobel? [2'11]
O that it were so! It sometimes comes into my head [2'21]
Strew no more red roses [2'53]
Where she lies asleep She sleeps so lightly, that in trembling fear [3'11]
Love went a-riding [1'50]
Thy hand in mine [2'24]
So early in the morning, O:
– I cling and swing [2'27]
Mantle of blue O, men from the fields! [1'52]
The last invocation At the last, tenderly [2'52]
When you are old and gray [3'29]
Into her keeping Now that my love lies sleeping [2'06]
What shall I your true love tell? [3'32]
'Tis but a week [1'58]
Day after day [3'58]
Speak to me, my love! [5'00]
Dweller in my deathless dreams You are the evening cloud floating in the sky of my dreams [4'45]
Goldenhair Lean out of the window [1'40]
Journey's end What will they give me, when journey's done? [3'54]

This important release brings together all forty-five of the songs composed by Frank Bridge. The programme is presented generally along chronological lines, and although the songs were written over two decades there is a remarkable consistency of style. A good number of the texts will be familiar from the songs of, say, Quilter or Finzi, but many more show Bridge’s enthusiasm for unearthing rather less well-known literary subject matter.

‘These two CDs, ?nely recorded and thoughtfully presented, are a most timely and valuable addition to the catalogue’ (Gramophone)

‘This ?ne collection of settings by poets as diverse as Herrick, Heine and Tagore is full of surprises and beautifully performed by all, especially pianist Roger Vignoles’ (The Observer)

‘Prepared and performed with the care and conviction for which Hyperion is famous. Those who simply love vocal recitals will ?nd plenty of enjoyment in these well-documented discs, as well as a further revelation of the wealth of ‘English Renaissance’ contributions to art song. Distinguished performances of little-known but substantial, and often impressive, repertoire’ (Classic CD)

‘Another superb collection of songs’ (Financial Times)
