Brian Kay is of course well known as a member of the celebrated Kings Singers and as a presenter on BBC Radio 3 and 4. The music: breezy, happy, and fun — easy listening it all is; the range is diverse from Shearing’s jaunty jazz style to part-songs by Vaughan Williams, Pearsall, Sullivan and others.
