Reviews

‘Performed with the kind of zestful spirit and communicative flair that has rightly won this series so many plaudits’ (Gramophone)

‘This is one of the very finest of Hyperion's 'Romantic Piano Concertos' series’ (The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs)

‘Delightful concertos. Kullak's in particular strikes me as a gem. Piers Lane plays both with dexterity and wit. A winner’ (The Sunday Times)

‘I can't stop playing the disc: the anticipation of a number of ear-tickling passages, notably in the Kullak, is too delicious for words. Effervescent, lightweight music transformed into entertaining and compelling minor masterpieces’ (Classic CD)
