This review is from: Purcell: Airs & Duets (Audio CD)

A justly well-received album. My copy also contained a sampler disc, which was a nice touch. Well worth it for those interested in this sort of thing. Dooley makes a fantastic countertenor, and the selections are justly considered. First class recording, first rate continuo work. Just a delightful disc. Can't be more praised. Moments of exquisite beauty: e.g. "Lord, What is Man?"
