'Likeable works which are given performances of such conviction that one is thoroughly carried along' (The Scotsman)

'Sa virtuosité étourdissante, sa fougue, sa large palette sonore, son sens poétique confirment sa position étoile montante du piano britannique' (Diapason, France)

'Ein Muß für Liebhaber des abseitigen romantisch-schwelgenden Repertoires' (Fono Forum, Germany)
