"Dating from 1953, the mono recorded sound retains its ambient warmth and glow of sound that made these accounts famous in their day and which is so essential for Delius. Paris is full of spontaneous passionate evocation, and Collins' mastery in this repertoire is confirmed in the rest of his items."
