RICHARD DYER-BENNET - 1

Richard Dyer-Bennet was instrumental in bringing the rural folk repertoire to the concert hall during the '50s, and releases on his own Dyer-Bennet label were lovingly annotated and engineered explorations of the same. This release reissues the very first release on his label, with extensive notes and personal commentary on songs ranging from 18th-century art songs to American traditional folk tunes. Includes Molly Brannigan; Down in the Valley; Pedro; the Vicar of Bray, and more.
