To mark its 20th anniversary in 2009, NMC Recordings commissioned The NMC Songbook, a collection of art-songs from 96 composers, each on the general theme of "Britain", scored for one or two voices, and various instrumental accompaniments.
In parallel, the label curated a series of 4 concerts, the first public performances of the songs, at Kings Place, London from 1-4 April 2009 [REF].
