REVIEW

"...Jonathan Lemalu...is admirably accompanied by the pianist Malcolm Martineau, and in the Butterworth by the Belcea Quartet, who also share in a marvellously grave account of Barber's Dover Beach..."

“Such a range of material… confidently tackled by Lemalu whose tone, vocal richness and breadth keep maturing… his edgy delivery on the modern American ones is full of pace and panache.”
