Wuthering Heights 

Reviews of the CD

Huddersfield Daily Examiner, November 1991

It sounds just how you'd expect a musical about Wuthering Heights to sound. The wild fluctuations in mood are mirrored in the music - darker moments are etched out by full foreboding orchestral passion while simple fluttering flutes evoke happier, more fluffy, times;

It's all soaring sopranos and trembling tenors. The music and lyrics are penned by Bernard J Taylor, with Heathcliff performed by Dave Willetts - now the phantom in Phantom Of The Opera. And I feel I must reveal that good old Bonnie Langford pops up as Isabella.

The whole thing is tailor-made for the West End stage, where it is sure to go down a storm.
