I wanted to hear the Chris Hughs version since it received good reviews, but the audio from the download on this page is from another version with (at least) the first ten sonnets read by Annie Pullman. Perhaps a mistake was made?
A wonderful recitation!

It would behove the reader to slow down from time to time to provide the clarity and passion needed for the great Shakespeare’s sonnets. However, this reader provides wonderful and soulful content in my view. Thank you.
Thanks
