Monica Groop (mezzo-soprano) & Roger Vignoles (piano) “Groop knows precisely how far to take her vocal characterization of the many forlorn lovers – and the even more numerous dramatic turns in the weather – and does a nice line in male seducers.

Peter Mattei (baritone) & Monica Groop (mezzo-soprano) Gentlemen of the London Symphony Chorus & London Symphony Orchestra, Sir Colin Davis "a blistering performance … Groop was heart-rending in her description of her abandonment as a child, and Sibelius's orchestration was fabulously imaginative, with a passage of shimmering woodwind trills depicting the sounds of the forest. Mattei's horrified response was equally powerful, accompanied by shattering dissonances in the orchestra." The Guardian | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
