What people are saying

" It is a real pleasure to make the acquaintance of David John Pike on this quite superb recording. The singer has all the qualities that one looks for in this repertoire: a well-focused and steady delivery, imaginative response to the text, and a real sense of legato … This recital should draw in anyone who cares about British song and the future of British singing. They will thoroughly enjoy themselves, as I did – comparisons with Shirley-Quirk and Terfel are not at all inappropriate when listening to artistry such as this." Recording of the Month, Musicweb International, May 2013

"It is assuredly – and this judgement has nothing to do with sycophancy – the exemplary interpretation of repertoire that is often neglected outside Britain – and a recording to which one will listen with pleasure, again and again." Luxemburger Wort, December 2012

"With his sonorous and flexible baritone voice, David John Pike sings a programme of English songs with highly impressive style." Pizzicato, January 2013

"Pike’s dark roast baritone voice is wonderfully robust yet clear and his articulate pleasure at singing art song in English is a joy to hear … accompanist Isabelle Trüb is stunningly virtuosic without stealing the limelight?…?incredible." The Whole Note
