‘Wonderful. There are so many colours. In the Musorgsky I particularly liked that it all seems to come from choral singing … I think it's a really wonderful use of the piano’ (BBC Record Review)

‘I really found the intensity and the ensemble irresistible’ (BBC Record Review)

‘The current project is important: it is the first complete cycle of Tippett’s Symphonies in quarter of a century … the vibrant playing by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra [in No 3] is superb. I enjoyed the gutsy performance by singer Rachel Nicholls … the present recording [of No 4] is totally satisfying … but for me the ‘prize pippin’ was the Symphony in B flat … it is good to have an approachable and rather traditional ‘English’ work from Tippett’s pen’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘The performers here are the Portuguese choir Cupertinos under their regular music director Luís Toscano. They are a new name on Hyperion’s roster of artists and I, for one look forward to future recordings, as they invest this repertoire with a tangible Iberian flavour which results in a sound that is simultaneously airy and sun-drenched … Cardoso’s four-part Requiem is a real find. The various solo cantors from Cupertinos who commence each section seem to surf the airwaves of the Basílica's marvellous acoustic. The essence of this work seems to incorporate a softer focus, which yields expressive dividends from this particular choir. It is a rare delight to hear a group whose blend, if anything, favours the higher voices … a fine debut from this Portuguese group’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘Tiberghien's execution and control are impeccable, and his interpretations are fluid and wholly at the service of Liszt's changeable expressions … Hyperion's sound is clear and well-balanced, with the right amount of brilliance in the loudest passages and atmosphere in the softest. Highly recommended’ (AllMusic, USA)» More

‘This Liszt recital merely confirms my recent impression of Tiberghien’s credentials in this music … [in Sursum corda] Tiberghien must execute any number of pedal points on E, moving in vaulting gestures into fff declamations written over four staves to ensure their ‘symphonic,’ grandioso effect … the production team of Simon Eadon and Andrew Keener deserves special mention for this recording, faithful to Liszt’s—and Tiberghien’s—keyboard in every way’ (Audiophile Audition, USA)

„Das instrumentale Zusammenspiel ist wohlproportioniert, besticht durch Differenziertheit und Eleganz“ (Concerti, Germany)» More

‘The Franck is played with the kind of refined elegance you’d expect from this duo. Tempo decisions are good, and they are careful not to allow movements to drizzle into each other, as less perceptive duos are apt to do; each movement retains its own definitive sense of character. The greater burdens in this work are borne by the pianist and Tiberghien proves a laudable exponent. Ibragimova makes a few expressive position changes, especially in the second movement Allegro and there is a clarity and directness to the reading … full of correspondences and inter-connections this finely recorded recital disc makes fine programming sense, no matter how many recordings of the Franck you may have and will be especially valuable for the Ysaÿe and Vierne’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘One of the most emotionally responsive, flexible and passionate modern performances [of the Franck] I’ve heard … Ibragimova barely playing above a whisper to begin with—such a sweet, tremulous sound, growing and fading in the first [movement] … so well-paced and balanced. Even at its most exuberant the piano never quite swamps the violin, and Ibragimova’s sound holds its sweet centre … even in a crowded field this comes up fresh, and add outstanding performances of the less well-known things … it’s my Record of the Week’ (BBC Record Review)

‘Another reason to prefer this disc, in addition to the colour-conscious, energising and subtle playing of Benjamin Nabarro, Gemma Rosefield and Tim Horton’ (MusicWeb International)» More

‘A must for all collections of Rennaissance music’ (CD Hotlist, USA)» More

‘Playing under the baton of Thierry Fischer, the Utah Symphony has become one of the most impressive American orchestras on the scene in recent years … its tone both rich and balanced and its phrasing suitably Romantic without being overweeningly dramatic … highly recommended’ (CD Hotlist, USA)» More
