'His devotion, consistency of playing, and stamina continue to amaze me. And his program notes alone are worth the price' (Classical Pulse!, USA)

'A must for all lovers of Schubert and followers of Liszt's devotion to him' (Yorkshire Evening Post)

'His idiomatic grasp and utter reliability remain as admirable as in earlier instalments. Excellent sonics and informative notes by the performer' (American Record Guide)
