"Far from a retrospective recording, however, Songs for Ariel is a vibrant performance that amply demonstrates the continuing vitality and beauty of Bowman's voice." -- Opera Today In 2005, after several years of absence from the recording world, James Bowman recorded this very English recital program covering five centuries of music, which proved to be his last solo recording. The repertoire covers many aspects of his long and distinguished career, about which the liner notes and an interview with musicologist Richard Langham Smith reveal some secrets. As accompanist, Bowman chose American harpsichordist/pianist Kenneth Weiss, with whom he has been giving recitals for many years. The booklet includes photos from Bowman's childhood and from various opera productions.
