Peter Pears (tenor)
Benjamin Britten (piano)
On this Island: settings of five poems by W. H Auden :
Let the florid music praise!
Now the leaves are falling fast Fish in the unruffled lakes
Nocturne (Now thro' night's caressing grip)
As it is, plenty
Canticle (Francis Quarles ).
(First broadcast performance)
