Quote from: Der lächelnde Schatten on May 14, 2025, 02:39:14 PMActually, now that I'm thinking about it @Iota, there are a number of other Britten works that use children's voices that I enjoy like Noye's Fludde and Children's Crusade.

And of course Miles is always played by a child, but it is interesting to note that Britten cast the role of Flora as a soprano, Olive Dyer in the original production and on the recording.
