American Record Guide This is a splendid release. …There is plenty of variety here… The baby-faced photo of the performer belies a maturity of approach and technique. He lingers where needed and articulates clearly enough to avoid the muddiness so often encountered in reverberant spaces (about 6 seconds here). These are colorful tapestries cast in late 19th Century harmony with frequent touches of impressionism performed with taste and sensitivity. There is a lot of poetry here. – Metz
