Britten: Who are these Children?/07: A Riddle, 'The Child you were'. One of his major song cycles. For the cycle Britten turned to the relatively little-known poet William Soutar, choosing to intersperse Soutar’s intense English language war poems with the poet’s riddles and verses in Scots dialect. With Daniel Norman, tenor and Christopher Gould, piano.
