Five Centuries of Song

"Neva Pilgrim, artist-in-residence at Colgate University, is an outstanding recitalist, and this compact disc affords ample evidence of her talent in a wide spectrum of songs ranging from the 16th to the 20th centuries ... Excellent accompaniment is provided by harpsichordist Edward Smith in the earlier music and pianist Stephen Heyman in the later selections." Bill Rice, Sunday Gazette (Schenectady, New York).

"It's great to hear so much of this neglected repertoire recorded in mostly excellent performances. Starting with a song attributed to Anne Boleyn while she awaited execution, we travel across five centuries all the way to Libby Larsen and some of her contemporaries, many of them still alive today. I found it fascinating...I enjoyed the entire disc." Reynolds, American Record Guide.
