'This must be a first: a father-daughter disc in which both are the composers. The centenary of Andrzej Panufnik (1914-1991) is being celebrated this year. It’s a wonderful opportunity to revisit his delicate, jewel-like music, at once appealing, rigorous and poignant. Today the name Panufnik is as frequently associated with Roxanna, who has masterminded this disc in tribute to her father. It includes a piano trio by each, songs by each, and one song—Modlitwa—which he started and she, years after his death, completed. Love Song, a setting of Philip Sidney which Andrzej dedicated to his wife, Camilla, makes a heartfelt opening. Dreamscape, a vocalise here played by cello and piano, dates from the same period. This is intensely personal music-making, beautifully performed' (The Observer)
'The centenary of the birth of Andrzej Panufnik is marked in his adopted country by special performances and recordings, including these songs and trios by the composer who was born in Warsaw at the start of the First World War, and by his daughter. The father's songs to fine English texts—Philip Sidney, Shakespeare—are shot through with melancholy, even when celebrating love, Roxanna, born in London, marvels at her city as Wordsworth did, from Westminster Bridge in That Mighty Heart, and her delight in her life bubbles through her piano trio Around Three Corners. But Andrzej's cello vocalise, Virtue, and his early Piano Trio Op 1 steal the show' (The Independent on Sunday)
