Alice Coote, l'une des meilleures sopranos actuelles, propose son premier récital chez Hyperion, en compagnie du fameux pianiste Graham Johnson. "The Power of Love" est un voyage au travers d'un siècle de mélodies anglaises, de Ivor Gurney à Gustav Holst en passant Roger Quilter et Maude Valérie White. Tout à tour enivrante, spirituelle, sereine ou sardonique, Alice Coote charme par son intelligence du texte et la tenue de sa ligne vocale.
