Alice Coote, one of the most distinctive mezzo-sopranos of today, makes her recital debut on Hyperion with pianist Graham Johnson, a stalwart of the label and tireless explorer of vocal repertoire. The Power of Love creates what Johnson describes as a \u2018pageant of English song and poetry\u2019. It\u2019s a journey through half a century of song, surveying not just human love but love of nature and even of money. Some of the most touching pieces here involve the loss of love through death, not least Ivor Gurney\u2019s Lights Out and Gustav Holst\u2019s Betelgeuse. There\u2019s serenity, too, in mellifluous settings by Roger Quilter, while high spirits are supplied by Maude Valerie White\u2019s The Spring has come and Warlock\u2019s sardonic Queen Anne, which includes the immortal lines \u2018I am Queen Anne, of whom \u2019tis said / I\u2019m chiefly fam\u2019d for being dead\u2019.
