I presume the Naxos is a new recording.I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

May I just add my own enthusiasm for the Viola Sonata. RC was not a one-trick pony however. For instance, The Choir of Gonville and Caius has made a CD of her complete Choral Works.
Discover Rebecca Clarke: The Complete Choral Music by Choir of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge released in 2003. Find album reviews, track lists, credits, awards and more at AllMusic.
It is a hackneyed phrase to say 'they are much neglected and should be better-known', but I believe this to be especially true of her choral pieces. What a shame she more or less 'gave up' composing in later life.
