David Meredith - Golden Treble Solos
Golden Treble Solos (Lammas LAMM 093D, CD) 1997
Featuring David Meredith  
If the title of this CD meant golden treble voice as well as songs, it would be apt for David Meredith, as he has a very sweet-toned velvety voice with an ideal light vibrato enriching the colour. He sings quite naturally and softly without strain or forcing; breath-control is excellent; intonation rarely lapses. One or two tracks show slight huskiness, which may be due to tiredness, but one cannot be other than charmed by this recital. (BJP)
