Burning Sun
- Hilary James (with Simon Mayor)

Hilary James' highly acclaimed debut, 'Burning Sun' reached the top ten play list on BBC Radio 2. Plays followed on BBC Radio1, World Service and stations as far afield as Los Angeles and Latvia. A magical and atmospheric blend of folk songs and originals with haunting words and melodies. 'Burning Sun', includes the spell-binding folk tales of 'The Two Sisters' and 'Polly Vaughan' alongside Handel's beautiful lament, 'Laschia Ch'io Pianga' sung with a bell-like purity.A magical blend of folk songs, classics and originals.

'Elegant singing' Daily Telegraph

'Wonderful - every track superb. For me, the best album of the 90's so far. Oozes class, with arrangements tailored like Saville Row suits.'
