"Michael Nyman's song cycle, completed last year, is subtitled Eight Songs with Film, though unfortunately the documentary footage that is intended to accompany a performance ... is not included on the CD. Though ... the instrumental movements that punctuate them - make a convincing enough sequence ... Contralto Hilary Summers is the soloist, her dark, plummy tones meshing perfectly with Nyman's brassy-tinged textures ... It's an eloquent and sometimes strikingly beautiful piece".
