Description: Avoiding the most famous composers but including some fairly well-known songs among mostly rather unknown ones, mezzo Coote and pianist Johnson planned a chronological English songbook, dating from the beginning of the 1880s and ending at the end of the 1920s. The title of the disc is its theme - "The Power of Love" - but love of music and of nature as well as romantic love. Texts included. Alice Coote (mezzo), Graham Johnson (piano).
