‘Three excellent young British singers share the treasures recorded here under the sage aegis of Graham Johnson. Lisa Milne's bright, keen soprano is lovely, John Mark Ainsley is a model of style and verbal clarity and young Christopher Maltman continues to show the promise that won him the Cardiff Lieder Prize in 1997’ (The Sunday Times)

Isaac: Missa De Apostolis

‘Musically and sonically this is among The Tallis Scholars' finest recordings. If you've been following the work of this excellent a cappella ensemble over the years, you know that the best Tallis Scholars recordings achieve the highest artistic and technical standards … this is challenging music for any choir, but these singers always seem to be unfazed and untouched by the many difficulties of ensemble singing experienced by ordinary mortals’ (CDReview)

‘Cinquecento make an incredibly persuasive case for this repertoire … the singing is first-rate … the ensemble is fantastic and as you go from the Josquin into the Isaac it’s like walking from a baptistery into an amazing Gothic nave—the sunlight pours in. It’s a wonderful, wonderful disc … such a joy’ (BBC Record Review)» More

‘This album makes for a delightful hour … this is salon music in the best sense of the word, reminiscent of Tchaikovsky's pieces d'occasion. Haywood's rubato is delicate and his touch pliantly expressive; when virtuosity is required, he delivers it comfortably, but for the most part he just lets the music's artless charm speak for itself’ (BBC Music Magazine)» More

‘Hamelin's performance of the Concord Sonata is in the truest sense transcendental, his facility allowing him a cool poetry and lyricism inaccessible to other, more strenuously employed pianists … Hyperion's sound is immaculate and Hamelin's disc is a valuable addition to his unique, tirelessly evolving discography’ (Gramophone)

‘Reviewing the Mayer, I described Aimard's recording as 'of unmatchable vividness and panache'; but I must now transfer both the description and the recommendation to Hamelin’ (BBC Music Magazine)
