Lance Eccles - Duets for Lorraine - Treble and Tenor - OMP296

These duets are a welcome addition to the limited repertoire for Treble and Tenor. They are beautifully written and fairly easy, but curiously not a slur in sight, which makes one wonder if that is an oversight or deliberate - very strange if the latter. Most performers would want to add slurs when musically appropriate. There are ten in all, varied settings of well known and not so well known tunes from Germany, Holland, Texas, Ireland, Fiji and Sweden, ending with a sprightly setting of the well-known Moravian Brethren hymn 'Let us with a Gladsome Mind'. 

According to Orpheus's website the composer has had a distinguished career as an authority on rare languages as well as being an enthusiastic recorder player; it would be good if his publications included a little biographical information.
