' ...Thorby plays with her customary vigour and agility, with generous and judiciously applied ornamentation.' International Record Review
The Nightingale and the Butterfly presents a fine example of Pamela Thorby's award-winning trademark sound: soaring and graceful melodies played impeccably. Elizabeth Kenny weaves the lute melodies seamlessly amongst Pamela's recorders - the two players complementing each other effortlessly.
Thorby and Kenny, both specialists in Baroque repertoire, give a unique interpretation of these appealing works whilst uncovering the beauty of some lesser-known gems.
