...Marlboro Music Festival; Columbia; and Gerard Souzay, baritone, accompanied by Dalton Baldwin, piano; Epic). Two new recordings of the nine songs Faure composed to the cycle of poems addressed by Verlaine to his fiancee ("One bright summer day the sun will second my joy The sky like a tall tent will wave around us"). As might be expected of the two leading interpreters of French art songs, both readings are of first quality. Singher, at his peak, is marred only occasionally by an overexpressive wobble.

Bird Lover Painter delighted in helping the children discover some wonderful birds-a hoarse raven that flapped over the yellow pines, a broad-tailed...
...growl of a lumber truck on a steep grade, the small talk of tiny birds in the bushes, and the murmuring of a mountain stream. And at night: the goose-pimpling patter of rain on the canvas that wakes a child, the stark clarity of detail in the tent when lightning flashes, and the crack of thunder and its rolling echo around the lake shore...
