Scottish Ensemble - Britten - Gramophone [GL]

The younger generation of singers – those still currently active – are strongly represented in 2003 by Toby Spence with the Scottish Ensemble on Linn. His is the most vulnerable-sounding version and in many ways the most moving. The odd frailty in the upper register curiously adds to this effect, but the voice is recorded just that bit too distantly.
