The subtle, respectful orchestrations wrap around [Gerald Finley’s] voice like a glove. Some of the songs are sinuously chromatic, a reminder of how close Sibelius came to Schoenberg’s world in the early years of the 20th century, while others rely more heavily on the 19th-century German lieder tradition, going right back to Schubert. Finley sings them all with his usual finesse and careful shading, reserving his full power for the few genuinely climactic moments, while alongside the songs Edward Gardner and his orchestra include very fine performances of three orchestral works. ... They complement the songs perfectly.
