About
From Blake's The Lilly to Cilla McQueen's Princess Alice the Incredible Lady Gymnast, this retrospective collection presents song cycles drawn from a breadth of material as well as years. For David Farquhar, song is not only a central part of music, but quite possibly the "essence" of his composition.
