„Ibragimova und Tiberghien … eröffnen den Reigen mit der F-Dur-Sonate KV 376—und zeigen hier und da den verschmitzten Mozart, immer aber sind sie auf Noblesse und Ausgewogenheit bedacht, dynamisch scheinen sie sich viel lieber im piano und pianissimo aufzuhalten als im forte“ (NDR Kultur, Germany)» More

Aksel! - Arias by Bach, Handel & Mozart
Studio Master: SIGCD435  Download only  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

'Exceptionally polished performances and, one of two clipped bits of phrasing aside, mightily impressive vocal control from the 13-year-old Norwegian treble. The arias are well-chosen' (BBC Music Magazine)

Bartók: Mikrokosmos 5 & other piano music

‘Cédric Tiberghien's first CD for Hyperion of Bartok's piano music was brilliant from start to finish … the 47 tracks of this new one are of the same standard … intimate and poetic, this is pianism which delicately suggests rather than making statements. A lovely hour and a quarter’ (BBC Music Magazine)» More

„Gerade durch diese individuellen Lösungen, die klar machen, dass diese Musik weit mehr als ‚nur‘ Musik polnischstämmiger Komponisten ist, treten die vorliegenden Interpretationen heraus aus dem Gros guter und sehr guter jüngster Kammermusikinterpretationen und lassen eine Empfehlung an den geneigten Leser unvermeidbar scheinen“ (Klassik.com, Germany)» More

Mendelssohn: Symphonies Nos 1 & 4
Studio Master: LSO0769  Download only  Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads available

'Gardiner keeps the LSO on its toes both in the C minor work and the 'Italian' Symphony, the winds producing crystal-clear articulation in the hair-raisingly fast account of the latter's concluding 'saltarello'. He also effectively brings out the undercurrent of unease in the C minor work's slow movement, and the final reprise of its theme is quite beautifully handled' (BBC Music Magazine)» More
