Gramophone was one of many publications which found much to enjoy in this recording: "Philip Pickett and his New London Consort have always had a particular affinity for Spanish music. They offer a neat balance of deep emotion and controlled clarity that suits the music well. But it is primarily a monument to the ever-increasing musical range of Catherine Bott, who is the only singer here. It is a constant delight to hear how she modulates her lines, sometimes hard-edged, sometimes magically atmospheric, sometimes bending and sliding the pitches, often heavily romantic."
