'Chandos, Marilyn Hill Smith and Stuart Barry deserve full marks for taking the task so seriously - orchestrations sound to be authentic…'
Gramophone

Marilyn Hill Smith's popular recording of the romantic songs of Ivor Novello is now available on Chandos' budget label, Collect.

The CD features songs such as 'Keep the Home Fires Burning' and 'We'll gather Lilacs', and other music so evocative of the 1930s and '40s.
