Reviews

‘Jacobs treats the music with affection, but also respect; he's served by an excellent recording’ (BBC Music Magazine Top 1000 CDs Guide)

‘Well worth the attention of those who enjoy piano music that seeks merely to soothe, charm and enchant’ (Gramophone)

‘In this well recorded, presented and imaginatively conceived issue we see again just how well Hyperion can produce the goods! It is a particular pleasure to see this issue on the market’ (CDReview)
The Sérénade in D, Op 29 is an innocent tune treated to some deft modulations to vary its even, untroubled flow.

from notes by Calum MacDonald © 1992

La Sérénade en ré, opus 29, est un air innocent auquel sont données quelques prestes modulations pour varier son cours tranquille et régulier.

extrait des notes rédigées par Calum MacDonald © 1992
Français: Alain Midoux

Die Serenade in D-Dur, Op. 29 ist eine unschuldige Weise, die einige geschickte Modulationen erfährt, um ihr gleichmäßiges, ungetrübtes Fließen abwechslungsreicher zu gestalten.
